No, that was just a classic trope. Noir is very much alive and defined by not having any “good” charcters, just lots of shades of gray quasi heroes. “Nightcralwer”, “Emily the Criminal” and “Girl with the dragon tattoo” movies are great examples of modern noir. That trope is just dated, but also still used in sci-fi like Blade Runner.
So women having rights killed an entire genre

And yeah, he was a horrible monster, I loved every second. 😂
