What is Roman Noir?
The Forum and the fat man. Femme fatales and gladiators. A detective and a few (usually very few) denarii.
Some things never change.
Roman Noir is a pun on roman noir—what the French call the hard-boiled tales whose gunshots echoed loudly enough to inspire a genre. The Roman Noir you'll find in these pages links their world to that of two thousand years ago.
Some things never change. Luckily.
Go on in. The movie's about to start.

movie is best viewed in 320X240 ... hurry, or you'll miss the cartoons.
