He watches. He writes. He rescues.

CZAR OF NOIR details the history of noir in American cinema – but also reveals the obsessed, personal side to Eddie Muller: how he was first introduced by his father, a San Francisco journalist who specialized in boxing, to a world that was purely “noir.” Eddie went on to write five non-fiction books about the history of noir and is also author of the best-selling autobiography of actor Tab Hunter.
