Nope. FILM NOIR is very well organized and easy to use
because of the way
it is put together. DARK CITY is akin to reading HOLLYWOOD
BABYLON. It is
a narrative, so getting information from it will be dependent
on how well
done the index is, which from eyeballing it, cannot nearly be
as
informative as the structure used to organize FILM
NOIR.
But the main differential has to be comprehensiveness, which
FILM NOIR can
claim, but DARK CITY does not. DARK CITY is pure fun.
>Would appreciate other publication info.
