I really like Rufus Sewell. From playing leads in the 90s he seemed to get cast as villains a lot in the 2000s, then in a lot of poorly rated films before making a bit of a TV comeback with Victoria....

I didn't love Dark City when I saw it, but probably ought to give it another chance.

The Conversation was on my list. I did waver on whether it was noir enough but it seemed to pop up on lists of neo-noir films (and in the first line on Wikipedia ). After agonizing over how noir my...
