Weegee 's noir classic on the secret life of New York, now in a beautifully printed new edition Weegee wandered the streets of 1940s New York at night looking for lovers, corpses and criminals to shoot for tabloid readers who had to have their daily blood bath and sex potion to go with their breakfast (as Weegee put it with characteristic flair).
His images crackle with visual puns, blinding flashes and complex composi.
