*Summary*

Much of the wealth of Spanish cinema lies in the fact that it consists 
of many popular genres, which enjoy great commercial success but little 
critical recognition. Film noir and crime are genres which have been 
either forgotten by the history books or else relegated to a mere 
footnote in a film history biased in its view. For this reason, this 
monograph aims to offer a historical perspective of this evocative body 
of work, from the post-war period to the present day. The commercial 
success and critical acclaim bestowed on some recent feature films 
belonging to the genre attest to the timeliness of this monograph, which 
we consider of great interest to film historians and researchers and 
academics in the fields of History of Art and Communications Studies.

*Lines of study*

  * Spanish post-war detective film (1940-1949).
  * Spanish noir of the fifties.
  * Spanish crime film under the policies of García Escudero and Robles
    Piquer (1960-1968).
