I would consider The Maltese Falcon to be a prototypical film noir. Of course, my choice is based on a pool of about five films! I may change my mind once I watch my 10 new film noir acquisitions.
Walter - I see your point. For me, when I watch a movie I love (any movie) I invariably look forward to certain moments or scenes. This could be anything from a whole scene that lasts for five or ten minutes or just a wink or nod from a character. For example: The Unforgiven
I love the moment when Clint's character reaches for the bottle of whiskey when he learns that his friend (Morgan Freeman) has been killed.
This moment obviously marks a turning point for Clint's character and not a word is said. This doesn't mean that I don't enjoy the rest of the movie. These are just special moments that I look forward too when watching a movie.
