Humour noir意思

"Humour noir" is a term that combines the French words for "black" (noir) and "humor" (humour). In English, this term translates to "black humor." Black humor is a type of comedy that deals with subjects like death, suffering, pain, or other topics that are typically considered serious or taboo in a humorous or satirical way. It often involves a sharp, ironic, or morbid perspective on life's difficulties.

The term "noir" is also used in literature and film to describe the "film noir" genre, which is a style of crime fiction that is characterized by cynicism, moral ambiguity, and the presence of a femme fatale. This genre often uses elements of humor, even dark humor, to add depth and complexity to the narratives.
