Add to my lists | Print this list

Love the noir. I should say upfront that there are many good noirs I haven’t seen yet so don’t yell at me if your favorite isn’t on this list. However, I’ve seen enough to know what I like and what I think other people might like as well. If you are curious about film noir, you couldn’t go wrong starting with any of these films. Enjoy!

Love noir lists! Thanks for another, kla!

(P.S. I’d recommend The Blue Dahlia if you haven’t seen it.)
