Film Noir HoF IV
 

Open to Films from: 1940 to 1959 that are tagged 'noir' at either IMDB or Wiki.

I'd like this to be a quick HoF, as I want to do a couple more of these before the Noir Countdown deadline. So the length will be like 6 weeks.

So what are you waiting for? Send me your noms and we'll start faster than a B-girl can make for a drunk loaded with dough in a dingy dive.
Deadline: December 16th

Re: Film Noir HoF IV
 
I've never participated in a hall of fame before. Do I just pm you two nominations for the HOF. I'm also new to noir so this might help focus on the essential films of the genre.

Glad to have you! Any questions just ask. Yeah pm me but it's only one movie nomination.

I should say as per the usual HOF rules, noirs that already won an HOF aren't eligible...Laura, In a Lonely Place, Sunset Blvd, The Big Heat, The Big Sleep and The Third Man

John W Constantine 11-01-23 03:39 PM

I'll help out with a good recommendation.

Lol, very cheery.

Wyldesyde19 11-01-23 03:41 PM

I may join this. I’ll wait and see what’s nominated first. I plan on watching noir this month anyways

I hope to be able to do another Noir HoF and also a Neo Noir HoF before the Noir and Neo Noir countdowns deadlines are up.

That's good because I'm trying to find this noir I saw on Noir Alley that was really good but it's hard to find in my records and I don't want to give away the big twist(which is what makes it so special). I know somebody did a review of it so it might pop in this Hall

Citizen Rules 11-02-23 10:33 PM

Re: Film Noir HoF IV
 
Still room for more...I think I'll do the reveal fairly soon and anyone who wants to join after they see what noirs are in the HoF are welcomed to do so!

Thief 11-02-23 11:01 PM

Re: Film Noir HoF IV
 
Yeah, count me in.

PHOENIX74 11-02-23 11:08 PM

It's a toughie - I'd like to find a Film Noir from this era that's never been nominated before. I might go blind, I'm not so well watched Film Noir-wise, though spending two and a half years here has sure broadened my noir knowledge somewhat.

Citizen Rules 11-03-23 02:19 AM

Blind noms are fine for this HoF. I've done that plenty of times myself for other HoFs.

edarsenal 11-03-23 06:47 AM

I'm in. Just need to pick a nom.

You bet, CR. I'll be happy to join the fun.

Just to be sure, you're wanting only 1 nomination per person sent to you; and that nomination can't be a noir that has won before. Is that correct?
