Noir Bard 

A writer (usually poet) who feels as though they are the only one capable of writing what their soul tells them with complete truth. Usually dressed in black and adorned with scary accesories, a Noir Bard feels distinctly more important than any other mere mortal and is extremely pretentious.
Favorite pastimes include: black coffee, eye rolling, short fingernails, and alot of ripped lace
Laure: I just started taking this writing class after school and I feel like a complete outcast
Jown: Is it becuase you dress in color and don't cut yourself?
Laure: yes! Its completely full of these pretentious Noir Bards who wear ripped stockings and smoke black cigarettes because they think it gives them life experience
Jown: How pretentious!

hillbilly film noir 

This is a small but important genre of film that fits all of the forms of the classic film noir, but is set in a bleak, impoverished Appalachian setting. This type of film features corruption, crime, moral ambiguity, a hero in conflict, and a mysterious woman. In many of them, moonshining or bootlegging or some other indigenous Southern form of unlawful activity is featured.
Robert Mitchum's "Thunder Road" and Gregory Peck's "I Walk the Line" are two very important examples of the hillbilly film noir.
