To approach any genre work with a minimum guarantee of success, it is essential to know the classics. As for the noir genre, I think that literature and cinema deserve equal treatment. Dashiell Hammet’s ‘Red Harvest’ is as classic as Orson Wells’ ‘Touch of Evil’. Film is an inexhaustible source of inspiration.
—Juan Díaz Canales, in Blacksad: Le dessous de l’enquêtte (Dargaud, 2001)
