Issue No. 46 follows the American actors who traveled abroad and appeared in Italian noir throughout the 1940s and 50s.

Also in this issue:
Nick Rossi illuminates the sinister world of jazz noir by revisiting "The Crimson Canary"; Zach Vasquez details the ways in which peeping toms have both shaped and evolved with noir over the decades; Katarina Docalovich celebrates the legacy of neo-noir in the Philippines and the films of director Lino Brocka in particular; W. Carsten Andresen recounts the tragic role that pregnancy plays in the crime films of the classic noir period and beyond; Erik J. Martin makes a case for the criminally underrated "Onibaba"; Rafael Pineda compares the film version of Strangers on a Train to its source novel; Jason A. Ney takes "The Last Run" for a spin; and editor-in-chief Imogen Sara Smith examines a trio of 1966 releases starring the late Tatsuya Nakadai. Plus film reviews, a themed crossword puzzle, and more.
