    detour is an entertaining with a really clever twist.

    Excellent list, I've watched 9 of the 10 recommendations and are great (Only missing Murder by Contract). I would suggest an another 10 great Noirs for those interested: Nightmare Alley (1947), Pitfall (1948), Too Late for Tears (1949), The Set-Up (1949), In a Lonely Place (1950), Angel Face (1952), Rififi (1955), The Night of The Hunter (1955), The Big Combo (1955) and Blast of Silence (1961).

      Pitfall and Too Late for Tears are elevated by the presence of the delicious Lizabeth Scott, one of the greats. Desert Fury isn’t really a noir - and it’s in color - but Lizabeth’s and Mary Astor’s fashions by Edith Head are the stars of the show. Any of them could be worn today, especially Lizabeth’s slinky white sequined floor-length evening dress. Marilyn Monroe had nothing on her. To die for.

    I'm a film noir fanatic, and I'm so glad you highlighted these masterpieces. Out of these 10, it's hard for me to choose a favorite, all I can say is I also definitely recommend them all. I will say that Ace In The Hole and Sweet Smell Of Success make a perfect double feature.
    Film Noir and Classic Westerns are what got me so invested in Classic Cinema and your two recommendation videos really brought some much deserved attention to some underrated gems!

      I got to see a double bill of Ace and Sweet Smell on 35mm in LA and it was mesmerizing!

      @madnickmedia Wow! Both of those on the big screen sounds fantastic!

    Only two I have seen are "The Stranger" and "The Naked City." "The Breaking Ppoint" has been shown locally, but have had the chance to see it yet. Of the others I have only seen brief parfts of the Vince Edwards one. Some of my favorites include "Laura" and "Shadow of A Doubt.

    I've been blessed to have seen most of these (and now I want to watch them again). How about a list of films that, while in color, hit the nourish vibe perfectly?

    • @mrb0775
      @mrb0775 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      2 terrific color films which hit the noir vibe perfectly, IMO, are 1981's Body Heat and 1993's The Last Seduction!

    I found murder by contract by accident. What a great surprise.

    This is excellent. Inspires me to check out the ones I haven't seen, especially Sudden Fear.

    That was an excellent list and very well presented giving enough information without showing or telling too much.

    Who hasn’t seen Sweet Smell of Success if you are a fan of Noir.
    If you’ve never seen the movie Diner, check it out. There is a subplot where a character goes around quoting Sweet Smell of Success. The character has memorized the whole dialogue

    I've seen a few of these, and will put them all in my Prime Video cue if they're available. I would love to see what you have in the Japanese and French Noir. I love most foreign films.

    Film fans who've never seen it, should be both fascinated & floored by Ace In The Hole! It was made by director Billy Wilder, better known for such fine movies as Sunset Boulevard, Double Indemnity, The Apartment, Lost Weekend, and Stalag 17. But in the midst of an impressive run of such hits, Ace In The Hole was Mr Wilder's only financial flop, because it was simply too strong & cynical about human nature (or I'd say realistic) for the relatively innocent movie audiences of 1951 to swallow. And without giving anything away, the event that's at the center of the movie's story having the effect on crowds of people that it has, isn't an effect that's exaggerated, since the real life incident that the film was based on, also drew big crowds of people. And since the late Kirk Douglas, along with Al Pacino, is one of my 2 favorite actors, and I agreed with the late Roger Ebert, as he wrote back in about 2002, that there was nothing dated about the strong performance by Mr Douglas in Ace In The Hole, that film is one that I was so glad to get on Blu-ray in its Criterion collection edition! One last thing, the hard edged character played so strongly by Jan Sterling, in the film, speaks one of the greatest lines in movie history (IMO) as she gives a terse explanation for why she never goes to church. Her reason has nothing to do with her having a lack of faith or belief, or even her having any feelings of guilt. But once a film fan hears that brief explanation, he or she, won't ever forget it, and that line also reminds a viewer about how excellent that the screenplay of Ace In The Hole really is!
    As anyone who happens to run into my rambling here will instantly realize, I'm a huge fan of Ace In The Hole, so I'd sure like to offer my MOST sincere thanks to MadNick for remembering to include this powerful film noir on this Top 10 list!!!

      I've got bottle of pretty good rye in my pocket. All I need now is a dowdy-looking girl who transforms into a beautiful brunette when she takes her glasses off & lets her hair down.
