Noir, Hardboiled slang
Guest

Hi
I'm looking for some sort of dictionary or glossary about the noir hard-boiled slang popular in the 1940s Noir movies, as well as any other time for that matter.

I found one place online http://www.miskatonic.org/slang.html

Can you suggest any other references?

Thanks,
Dburton
