Dark and moody film genre (4)

I believe the answer is:

noir

(Other definitions for noir that I've seen before include "type of film" , "Dark in France, like brooding films of 40s and 50s" , "(Of film or fiction) with bleak settings and cynical characters" , "cinematic style" , "Film featuring bleak settings and cynical characters" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
