Abstract

The city is part of our environment, we live it every day in our constant evolution, and, in the movies, it appears staging and contextualizing places that represent the urban development of a place and time. This article takes us through a tour of the cinematographic genre noir, starting from its antecedents: it emerged in the 30s in the United States, but had its heyday in the 40s and 50s, based on its aesthetics, its themes, its dualities, and its main formal particularities, which characterize it as a genre. At the end of the review, we enter the Mexican film noir and the thriving urbanization that was experienced in the 40s in Mexico, with the purpose of thinking about the city, its streets, its buildings, its signs, as important elements that frame the viewer’s gaze from the urban.
