Answer to the Newsday crossword clue “Dark” film genre featured in the Newsday puzzle is NOIR.
The "noir" film genre, derived from the French word for "black," refers to a style of filmmaking that emerged primarily in the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by its dark, moody atmosphere and cynical worldview, film noir often portrays stories of crime, corruption, and moral ambiguity. Visually, noir films are marked by low-key lighting, stark contrasts between light and shadow (known as chiaroscuro), and urban settings shrouded in darkness or rain-soaked streets.
