What other such films have I forgotten, since, say, LA Confidential won the Oscar? Hell, I think even Memento was film noir. :] Disregarding "recent" for the sake of discussion, Box Office Mojo list 56 films since 1980 in its Neo Noir category. The newest are "Sin City" (no. 1 in non-inflation-adjusted box office in the category), "The Black Dahlia," "Hollywoodland," "Brick" (kiddie neo noir?), and "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang." http://www.boxofficemojo.com/genres/chart/?id=neonoir.htm Joe Ramirez |
