All the talk about the new Batman movie being more of a film noir/psychological thriller has me interested in seeing more of the types of film.

List your favorites here and I'll leave a review once I've watched it.

Sweet Smell of Success

Fight Club

Primal Fear

Identity

The three Claude! posted is probably where you should start. A few others that pop to mind -
The Night of the Hunter
The Blue Dahlia
Touch of Evil
Shadow of a Doubt
Dial M for Murder
L.A. Confidential
Body Heat
Not Noir but definitely a psychological thriller, Gaslight .
In many ways Blade Runner works better when viewed in light of Noir than SciFi.

House of Games
The Spanish Prisoner
Blood Simple

Diabolique
Repulsion

Third Man

Predestination

I'll return to this thread with the correct answers in less than a day.

Fantastic movie.

Dune.

No Blade Runner.

Blade Runner is sci-fi. It would be in my top 10 list for that, alongside the criminally underrated Sunshine (see it!)

Sci-fi and noir are not mutually exclusive. A film can be more than one thing.

If you like noir you should definitely watch Brick. It's a noir set in high school, starred JGL and was directed by Rian Johnson. It's a great take on the genre, really solid film if you haven't seen it.

J'ai vu des choses que vous ne croiriez pas. Les navires d'attaque en feu hors paule d'Orion. J'ai regard des rayons C briller dans l'obscurit prs de la porte Tannhuser. Tous ces moments seront perdus dans le temps, comme des larmes sous la pluie. L'heure de mourir.

I'm not a big film buff, but I like a certain set of movies for whatever reason(s) I like them. I kinda know what noir films are, but can't say I'm a fan. I tried watching Maltese Falcon and Chinatown earlier in life, and didn't make it through either. Just too slow to get me interested.

Reading this thread talking about psychological thrillers/noir and the debate over "Blade Runner" being sci-fi and/or noir makes me want to throw out another one. Maybe it's pure psychological thriller, or maybe it's horror, as it's mostly been pegged, but where does

The Shining (Kubrick's version, obviously, I hope)

fit into this discussion, or does it?

The Shining is psychological horror. Although the lines are blurry, Midsommar is the latest example of the genre. Speaking of Kubrick and genre, it is essential for cinephiles to read Sarris. Although I do not agree with him about Kubrick, his writing for an American audience is required to understand definitions and terminology.

Really like Brian de Palma's Body Double and Dressed to Kill.

Also like Jade.
