Synopsis:

Holed up in a hotel room with a case of money he has stolen from the mob a gumshoe awaits his fate. A shower door installation guy checks in to write a memoir on his experiences moonlighting as a portrait painter for pets owned by desperate housewives. Another resident is a lounge singer being stalked by a mobster who in turn has a fling with a call girl who does the rounds of the hotel dressed as a superhero. As the assortment of characters intertwine Hotel Noir materialises as a stylish period homage to hardboiled Hollywood and the unreliable nature of storytelling. The tapestry of conflicting inner monologues adds to a web of intrigue and the heavy atmosphere both sexy and fatalistic occasions a parade of star performers smouldering at their best.

Los Angeles, 1958: a detective holes up in a downtown hotel awaiting killers to come get him. During the course of one night he will meet various occupants of the hotel and the truth of how he came to be in his present situation will be revealed.

Hotel Noir, a black-and-white homage to the genre that made the 1950s so bleakly lurid, certainly tries to get the details right: cigarettes, fedoras, nylons, tough guys and the wisecracking molls who crave them.
