This is a good idea for a thread, as I'm sure there are still plenty of noirs that haven't been covered on the blog yet. Here's a few more I thought of:

The Clay Pigeon (1949)
Violent Saturday (1955)
Night of Evil (1962)
The Money Trap (1965)

[Steve-O]

Some interesting suggestions. Thanks!

I like when people mention movies I've never seen too...

[JohnChard]

I have three of those reviewed. Do I post them on this thread or in the usual Review section?

[Steve-O]

JohnChard: Post them as you usually do. I would say the word count for NOTW is around 800 - 1200 words, so if you wanted to expand them that would be better for the blog post.

Thanks!

They are not NOTW worthy, just what I call my basic summary reviews. I'll drop them on the main review page and see if anyone wants to comment or have their interest piqued enoughto watch and review themselves.

I'd also like Noir of the Week to re-do The Detective Story and Strangers on the Third Floor if there are any takers....

YES. I'd love to do Stranger on the Third Floor. I'll send you a PM.

U need to add "Talk About a Stranger"; a terrific small film from 1952. All about a boy and the pursuit of the man he thinks killed his dog. Very real and heartfelt with the superb cinematography of John ALton.

If I may be so bold I'd like to suggest for your consideration, several personal favourite late entry neo-noirs for inclusion in the Master List:
David Lynch's Blue Velvet (1986) and Lost Highway (1997), and David Cronenberg's Crash (1997), A History of Violence (2005) and Eastern Promises (2007).
Congratulations on the site's new look, it's fantastic!
Best
Chris
