The best noir movies

Noir movies are all moody shadows, sharp dialogue and characters you can never quite trust. Double Indemnity is a classic tale of temptation, The Third Man is wonderfully atmospheric, and Chinatown brings the style into colour. Turn the lights down low and let the mystery pull you in.
