I kill myself arguing this one. Normally, the debate ends with semantics over the definition of Noir. So anyone with an "official" definition should chime in early, before I start getting answers like "rush hour 2"
I'm siding with Taxi Driver right now, but Double Indemnity is putting up quite a fight. Feel free to answer with whatever you feel, I've found that too often new movies are left out of these discussions, simply for fear of a "Classics Film Buff/ Film Nazi" retribution.
I'll probably change my Favorite noir tommorow, or even today, I just rented a whole bunch that I have'nt seen in a while, and I wrote this without putting much thought into it.
