Now movies from the comic list would be a tough sell for me. Though there's a few that I've seen and thought well of.

Yeah I'm no opposed to any of them, bring them on Porco Rosso looks kind of fun. I think Ed had that one chose for him, or he chose it for someone else.

I didn't really care for her until Iron Man, she makes an awesome Pepper Potts.

Usually those how we do it type noirs are fine, one of my favorites investigative/procedural noirs is The Naked City (1948) which isn't even on the BFI Noir list
and Naked City is an example of when it truly works and it does.

Nothing jumps out at me as being horrible, just that it's not my type of movies.

T-Men (Anthony Mann 1947)
The problem is, besides being dull, is that the film is over bearing in it's narration during the first half of the film. I'm not talking inner monologue narration, I'm talking about some guy explaining everything we're seeing on the screen like we don't understand the basic elements of undercover work.
T-Men just proves what I already thought and that is the BFI doesn't know squat about noir. We so need a real noir list on MoFo.
*Still I'm glad to have watched this as I've wondered about it for years.
That was from me! I need to quit picking movies that are in other peoples wheelhouses. With the exception of the biggies of the genre I'm not much of a noir fan. I find them kind of dull but T-Men flew by for me. Not saying it's great but it's more entertaining than many of the "greats", in my opinion. I liked the kind of documentary aspect to the beginning of the film and it did a couple things I wasn't expecting. Ya win some, ya lose some.

It's SHOWTIME, folks!
All That Jazz (1979)
In 2001, All That Jazz was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the United States Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the National Film Registry. This is rare for a musical; this honor is usually bestowed to documentaries or straight dramas.
Bob Fosse's Ode to Dying has been on my watchlist for quite some time with a curiosity that began when it first came out. That curiosity grew all that much stronger while watching Fosse/Verdon (2019) short series and Cabaret (1972), so I was pretty enthused when I saw that someone nominated this for me.
Fosse has not only a creative eye, along with his creative muse, ex-wife Verdon, for setting the stage for dancing but a cinematic approach as well. Countless scenes speak volumes with just a shot rather than words or music. And those dance scenes when Fosse lets loose his sexual energy have a life all their own. But then, it IS Fosse fer f@ck sake; how could it be otherwise?
And with Roy Scheider, Fosse finds an ideal counter ego to express and define all that had wished to convey beyond the dance, behind show business, into the more personal, more intimate sides while still retaining The Show for all its glamour, frustration, addiction, and heartbreak.
A truly solid Must See! film that I am delighted to have finally seen.
