Re: The MoFo Top 100 Film Noir Countdown

well, what do you know. it was #8 on my ballot. like i said about memento and neo-noir, this is easily one of the first films to come to mind when you process the phrase "film noir".

Re: The MoFo Top 100 Neo-noir Countdown

watched it once and thought it was just okay. considering how many of my favourite coen films are ones i wasn't into the first time around, i obviously owe it another shot.

two votes. ace in the hole was my #10, just a fine piece of muckraking that more than holds up over 70 years later. notorious was my #20, one of the more undeniably solid hitchcock works.
