Also check out one of our recent MoFo List exercises that focused on Neo-Noir. Clicky HERE. Altman's The Long Goodbye place fifth on that collective list. You can also read through the countdown thread as each title was revealed (HERE), where there is spirited discussion around all the movies that made the list, as well as plenty that did not. For example, The Silent Partner did not make the cut, but it was certainly on MY BALLOT.

The Coen Bros. mentioned The Long Goodbye was a major influence on The Big Lebowski.
Or Under The Silver Lake is a really cool LA based neo-noir mystery.
