Summary/Abstract: It's hard to find a reader who wouldn't have had a crime novel in his hand. Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan Doyle, Robin Cook, and many other writers ' novels are well known.. Characteristics of the genre are that someone commits one (or more) murder, and this is revealed and proved by a police officer with excellent abilities and talent. When we take a crime novell off the shelf, we are aware, however we read it because there (although the culprit is undoubtedly coming up), the way how detectives roll up the case is more interesting. How detectives catch the culprit so that the reader has no idea of its identity until the end of the story. The cinema, once awakened to consciousness, are mostly based by this genre. That's how the crime, the noir, or the neo-noir were born, leaning toward other related genres. In fact, some of this genre films are mostly are based on reality events. A new genre, a new typology was born, the documentary feature film.
