Fallen Angels
A neo-noir anthology television series, set in somber Los Angeles right after World War II and before the election of American President John F. Kennedy. The episodes, although filmed in color, mimicked what had been done by Hollywood filmmakers during the film noir era of the 1940s and 1950s in terms of tone, look, and story content.

Professional Man
Johnny Lamb is an elevator man by day and a hit man by night. He's very good at his job; he's a professional. The Boss sends him on a job that makes Lamb confront his conscience, maybe for the first time.

Good Housekeeping
In the noir world you never know how certain people can change your life forever. A woman is transformed when she falls for a wise guy.
Tomorrow I Die
In pure noir fashion, where fatalism plays it's untimely hand, Hollywood actor Rich Thurber gets off the bus and enters a bar to take drink. The bar is then abruptly taken over by bank thieves. The hoods mistake Rich for a local politician and take him and Carol, the daughter of Los Angeles' top cop, for a ride they won't soon forget. Look for a surprising and riveting end.
