Film Noir Hall of Fame 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

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

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

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.

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?
