Nicely done, but Alphabetical? Bah.

If I PM you the ones I haven't seen will you Dictate to me a Top 5?
And is Double Indemnity your #1?

I thought about ranking them, but I'd already put in more time on it that I planned to.  I guess I could do like a "top 50" and a "next 50" but screw it, I recommend all of them!

If I PM you the ones I haven't seen will you Dictate to me a Top 5?

Sure.

And is Double Indemnity your #1?

It's the highest on my personal top 100, so yeah.

I felt "bad" that my favorite genre, film noir, was underrepresented in my top 100, so I wanted to do a "top 100 noir".

Geez, lots of movies there I haven't seen.  Hopefully, I can get schooled and watch at least 10 of them by the end of the year.

I was going to say that it would've been better if you posted this list in perhaps a Top 5 Film Noir thread, but I searched and couldn't find one which is a huge surprise.

I'm surprised to have actually seen 10% of that list. I'll have to get on that.

I've seen around 20-30 from the list. Like almost all of them. The exception is Sunset Blvd.  :P

I've only seen 12 films from that list. I like the genre, so the list gives me plenty of suggesting of movies to watch next.
