We'll be seeing Body Heat this week, a 1981 movie in the film noir tradition but not, strictly speaking, a film noir. This class seems to be familiar with the term film noir but I'm not clear on how much the students know about it and about how these films came to be. Guess I'll find out on Tuesday. And while we're on the subject, have they heard Elvis Costello's "Watching the Detectives"?
