Film noir first came into the public eye in the early 1940s. This was a time when the position of women and men were changing, due to the war and the shift in expectations in gender. The two main roles for women in film noir is the femme fatal and the girl next door, This is mainly due to how men saw women as more dangerous and successful and it shows how many men feared and disliked the concept of a woman doing well and so they generally make the successful woman the bad one and the more needy, kind female the good one.
In our OTS
We will be showing the female gender as dangerous and mysterious. Our only female character will be the have the femme fatal personality because we thing it signifies the idea of Film Noir more, also it will make the OTS more interesting and by having a dangerous character it makes the audience want to watch more than just the opening.
