Pay attention to the angles. I like black and white as I fall asleep to films, that and lack of swearing but cracking dialogue in noir. I dream in black and white.
I just have an aversion to Westerns in general but didn't like Johnny Guitar. Godard called Ray 'Cinema'.

Camera angles. Obscure diagonal lines. Often known as Dutch angles to convey a sense of distorted reality. Another classic of film noir is both actors facing the camera. I can often lie in bed and just listen to a noir and picture in my head what's going on on-screen.
Probably telling you how to suck eggs. But it's true.

saw than on mubi some years ago. loved it. very scary that one. you had know idea what was going to happen. the tone or arc didn't let you in on the outcome like they do nowadays where you can mostly guess your way ahead

horror movies nowadays seem to be propelled forward purely by the charge of tropes. adhering to them or not adhering to them but there's no disregarding them. they pave the roads of the narrative. every scene is a binary 0 or 1 on the trope in question.
