Robert Miklitsch is a professor in the department of English language and literature at Ohio University. He is the editor of Kiss the Blood Off My Hands: On Classic Film Noir.
"Possesses the potential to alter the entire field. An
unimpeachable reference book to be dipped into at need and taken in
toto as a substantial, sustained, and original interpretation of
its subject. Miklitsch is profoundly (and charmingly) collegial,
but his scrupulous tone should not obscure the challenge to
received wisdom his book poses."--Ann Douglas, author of Terrible
Honesty: Mongrel Manhattan in the 1920s "Miklitsch's extended
mediation on 1950s noir will entertain and intrigue both film
scholars and movie fans." --Journal of American Culture "An
interesting piece of work that highlights a commonly neglected
period of American film noir."--Pop Culture Shelf
“In this recommended read, [Miklitsch] finds something fresh
to say about a familiar film topic.”--Library Journal "Highly
Recommended."--Choice "Robert Miklitsch shows once again why he is
one of the most interesting and knowledgeable critics of film noir.
These readings of key '50s releases sparkle with insight, wit, and
the enthusiasm of the committed cinephile."--R. Barton Palmer,
author of Hollywood's Dark Cinema: The American Film Noir?
