I love 'film noir' because the 'hero' of the film is usually flawed and makes them seem more real -- plus the dialog is much more hard bitten... and the movie doesn't always have a happy ending...
I'm sure the lovely Charlatan will add oodles of movies to the list - but above are some of my favorites...
