High and Low

i have seen this film five or six times and i literally always forget Orson Welles is in it

even though it's the whole 'twist' of the film (not really it's like a chekhov's gun thing) he just shows up and it gets me, every watch

*mogs Casablanca*

question: can it be a film noir if it has a happy ending?

Check'd and respeck'd.

>One eye on the streets. One eye on the titties.
this will sell our movie

the third man has a happy ending because they shoot the guy who did the thing

i forget what the thing was. give kids cholera or something.

so yeah sure.

I don't think there are any hard rules like that. Sunset Boulevard is basically a comedy but it's on most top film noir lists.

then what are the boundaries?

black and white
has a tram/driving scene, possibly with an internal monologue

that's it, those are the only criteria

absolute kino.

i can post this crazy entertaining movie then!
testament of doctor mabuse is pretty wild. stuff from 30-35 is super wild and has aged very well from a entertainment perspective imho

i dunno man like, is Vertigo a noir?

i actually want some film autist to come in and tell me what counts. internet experts on this particular thing now is your time to shine!

Le Carré was counter intelligence. He was close with Kim Philby for a reason.

The spy who came in the cold? Is it about a masturbator with a ice fetish?

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari has all the weird sets and things but it's the 'madness' twist that gets me today

it predates modern understanding of mental health by a long shot and maybe it's because it was made before 'it's all in her head' became a cliche in itself, but something about it makes me feel very off and uncomfortable

like modern theories about how some religious experience was just drugs. this old film was just mental illness.

The Batman

vertigo is noir despite being having most of it in color and daylight imho. it scores pretty high on mystery women
