Color film noirs were movies that followed the "film noir" style (flashbacks, presence of femme fatale, crime theme, fatalistic, etc.) during the noir "Classical Period" (1940-1959) but, instead of using B&W film stock they were shot in color, often Technicolor. There were only a handful of such films.

Color noir films after 1959 became known as neo-noirs.
