Actually the noir cycle started already with the WWII (or
even before, one might argue). Take "The Maltese Falcon" for
instance. Not all the war time entertainment was fluff.
Hollywood produced lots of serious documentaries about war
and war-going countries and also made many anti-Hitler movies
(although they might be ridiculous nowadays, they were
relatively serious). Post-war anxiety is more complex matter
than just the men being exhausted from war.
