This is DEFINITELY one that required a second viewing. Wow. I thought it was excellent the first time, but this time I was blown away. Great noir film!

Tomorrow night I'm gonna go with House of Games (1987) never seen it but I've heard great things. Has anybody seen it?
House of Games (1987) is amazing! Definitely watch it! Also, check out another Mamet/Mantegna team up, Homicide (1991) - great film.

Leave Her to Heaven is a really chilling noir- all the more so because it’s in colour. Double Indemnity is just classic. I also love Strange Days as an example of neo noir.
