. . .(I simply like it better!)

That is how I have been voting. Were we supposed to be voting otherwise?

 

[Jim_K]

The Third Man
The Killers (1946)

 

[Rob Tomlin]

That is how I have been voting. Were we supposed to be voting otherwise?

Two things: First, some people could be voting for which film they believe better fits the definition of "Film Noir", while others could be voting for the movie they like better. It is your decision.

Second, I was also making a very weak attempt at a little humor with a play on words (those words being Simple and Simply). That's why I italicized "simply" and added the smiley face.

And now that I have gone to all that trouble to explain it, it is even funnier, isn't it? :b
