摘要：

Automobiles-particularly convertibles-serve in films noir as symbols of social mobility and expanded identity, as surrogate homes and amoral spaces. The recurrent figure of the hitchhiker, however, challenges the ideology of automobility, and in certain late films noir, automobiles are linked with explosive technologies that threaten to turn humans into atomized automatons.
