Some characteristics of film noir are typically American crime dramas or psychological thrillers, visual elements included low-key lighting, striking use of light and shadow, and unusual camera placement, disorientation through plot devices such as a non-linear plot line, an unreliable narrator, or flashbacks, a sense of impending doom or hopelessness, morally questionable protagonists (antihero), and femme fatale."
