黑色电影无疑是电影中最无定形的门类之一。诞生自美国好莱坞的“黑色电影”，却拥有一个浪漫的法国名字“Film Noir”。而事实上，黑色电影却几乎与“罗曼蒂克”无缘。提起“黑色电影”，最容易想到的是那些风格化、愤世主义的20世纪40、50年代好莱坞黑白电影——关于私家侦探、蛇蝎美女、犯案黑帮、亡命鸳鸯的情节剧。《黑色电影》一书没有回避这些影片，但詹姆斯•纳雷摩尔亦向我们指出：“黑色电影”这个术语远比我们所认识的复杂和矛盾，它是一份重要的电影遗产，也是我们投射到过去的一种观念。
*
像黑色电影中的私家侦探一般，詹姆斯•纳雷摩尔抽丝剥茧，深挖数十部经典影片，包括经典之作《双重赔偿》《马耳他之鹰》《第三个人》《来自过去》，“新黑色电影”《唐人街》《低俗小说》《蓝衣魔鬼》，以及21世纪的黑色电影《穆赫兰道》《罪恶之城》《杀戮赌场》等，指出了进入黑色电影的七个路径——概念生成、时代背景、审查制度、成本预算、美学风格、黑暗隐喻、新黑色电影。《黑色电影》提供了对黑色电影的原创性研究方法，既生动又广博，同时还有大量的影片信息和对数十部影片的评论，揭示出电影与文学、历史和观念之间千丝万缕的联系，具有启发意义。
*
《黑色电影》还是一部多学科交叉研究的著作，除了电影和电视，笔力所及，还带来有关现代文学、美术、流行文化的卓越见地。
