This was the golden age of commercial airflight--luxury in the skies--and safety was essential to the precarious future of air travel.

Using nothing more than her microscope and bits of feathers, she helped prosecute murderers, kidnappers, and poachers.

If you thought these women were something special onscreen, wait until you meet the genuine articles. In \u003ci\u003eDark City Dames\u003c\/i\u003e, acclaimed film historian Eddie Muller takes readers into the world of six women who made a lasting impression in this cinematic terrain--from veteran \"bad girls\" Audrey Totter, Marie Windsor, and Jane Greer to unexpected genre fixtures Evelyn Keyes, Coleen Gray, and Ann Savage. \u003cp\u003e The book provides in-depth profiles of these formidable women during the height of their careers, circa 1950, as they balanced love and career, struggled against typecasting, and sought fulfillment in a ruthless business. Their personal stories--teeming with larger-than-life characters like Howard Hughes, Louis B. Mayer, Robert Mitchum, Otto Preminger, and John Huston--offer a fascinating counterpoint to their movies. Then Dark City Dames revisits each woman fifty years later, to witness their hard-won--and triumphant--survival. On every page their own voices ring through, reflecting on their lives with as much passion, pain, intelligence, energy, and humor as any movie script. \u003c\/p\u003e Muller conducted far-ranging interviews with the original six women profiled in Dark City Dames, in the process becoming a friend and confidante to each.

This edition also includes compelling new profiles of ten additional women who left an indelible mark on film noir, including Joan Bennett, Gail Russell, Rhonda Fleming, and Claire Trevor--all packaged in a stunning redesign that offers the ultimate look at performers who helped define a still-resonant and inspiring epoch of Hollywood history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eddie Muller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Running Press Adult\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/08\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 8.20w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780762488261\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2025 pg. 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEddie Muller\u003c\/b\u003e, aka the \"Czar of Noir,\" is the host of Turner Classic Movies's \u003ci\u003eNoir Alley\u003c\/i\u003e.
