    Neo-Noir Films

    Chinatown I watched the first time before I started watching noir. Then I watched it again recently and thought it the most convincing neo noir I've seen. It's brilliant.

    Neo-Noir Films

    Just read the first page. Found The Hot Spot didn't have a very noirish feel to it either. What I saw of it anyway.

    Neo-Noir Films

    Never got round to fully watching The Hot Spot. Got half way through once but I wasn't in the mood, so will have to give it another go. Red Rock West is one of my favourites, but I've just realised John Dahl has a Neo Noir Trilogy also including Kill Me Again and The Last Seduction. Anyone seen...

    Euro 2024

    I don't watch too much football. Apparently Southgate plays players out of position simply for the sake of being in the team.

    Choon of the Day, redux

    Trumps intro theme. It does have a nice 'open harmony' though. I learnt that from studying Copland.

    Nairaland Forum

    Years since I read it but remember one 'post pics of hot Fulani women' or similar.

    Faces of the 20th Century

    Updikes a good one and some of these are comical, I like old faces from a time when you couldn't decide whether to shave your eyebrows or not. Not quite as severr as some posted though.

    Nigeria Is Africa's Largest Economy

    I used to read Nairaland Forum occasionally. Seemed to me that the Yoruba 'economy' is one of the most successful or is that a misconception?

    Film Noir

    There's some like City of Fear for example. I think it's brilliant in the context I watch it for the first time, in bed often just soaking in the atmosphere before I go to sleep. Then I watch it with my sister and find it slightly less impressive other than what must have caught my attention...

    Film Noir

    Cheers. I suffer the same problem of remembering which is which though. I'm forever rewatching films by accident, and reached the point after about 3 or so years of getting increasingly diminishing returns on most films I watch, having watched most of the well known ones. I'll try and do a more...

    Film Noir

    It's pretty much all I watch these days. I think my current favourite is Somewhere in the Night. By the time Richard Conte turns up you know you've watched a great one.

    Piano riddims

    I was trying to think of something more lowkey hardcore than that but kept thinking of Trip to the Moon Part 2. There's a Nookie tune from 92 that sounds a bit like The Slammer too.
