    A Cinematic Exploration of the Evolution of Film Noir – Se7en
    Film noir has been around for a long time now, with its very dark roots in German Expressionism, since the Black and White days of cinematic infancy. As Darwin said, every life form must evolve.

    Ed Norton-Aaron Stampler to The Hulk
