Neo-Noir Hall of Fame
https://i.imgur.com/eBJuuaq.jpg Neo-Noir Hall of Fame Open to Films released in or after 1960 that fit the Neo-noir countdown eligibility criteria. It was time. Not my time, but fate's time. My plan is to finish before the February 25 deadline for the countdown, so the pendulum will stop swinging on Friday, February 16, 2024. You have been warned. Yes, I have been warned as well. So as we swing the pendulum on this, reach deep within the murky waters of this sub-genre and send me your noms.

Re: Neo-Noir Hall of Fame
Ok, I'm gonna give this maybe one or two more days tops, so make sure you let me know you're in if you haven't, and have your nominations ready by the weekend.

I've been making a preliminary list during which several things occurred to me.
In practice the labeling of neo-noir films is far broader than what defines classic noir. It's almost as if any crime film can be a candidate for a neo-noir distinction, which of course should not be so. And some of the ones classified as being "neo-noirs" have me scratching my head. On the flip side several films that I consider to be neo-noir, like for example Heat (1995), with Pacino and De Niro, is not listed as neo-noir in any of the places I've checked. At any rate I'll be submitting my list before too long. |
Re: Neo-Noir Hall of Fame
Reveal today? Love to see what gets nommed.

I'm confused. Are we supposed to send you our one favorite neo-noir? And then also send a list of our 25 ranked neo-noirs?
This thread is a Hall of Fame (HoF) just like the Film Noir HoF IV which just ended...and the Last Chance...Film Noir HoF V which just started. |

It is confusing, as there's two Noir HoFs right now and also two Noir Countdowns...You all can blame me for the duel noir idea stuff:p

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?
