Film Noir (+)	PeaceAnarchy	Jul 19	553	0		54
Film noir is a cinematic term used primarily to describe stylish Hollywood crime dramas, particularly those that emphasize moral ambiguity and sexual motivation. Hollywood's classic film noir period is generally regarded as stretching from the early 1940s to the late 1950s. It is difficult to define film noir in any conventional sense. Film noir has been defined as a genre, an anti-genre, a movement, a visual style, a prevailing mood or tone, or a period. Borde and Chaumeton, originators of the term, identify six key attributes. By their definition, film noir is "oneiric, strange, erotic, ambivalent, and cruel..." and it aims to "create malaise". Whether or not this is an adequate definition is still open to debate.

Netflix Instant (+)	somnivore	Sep 08 2020	1398	0		28
NOTE: I no longer have time to update this collection, and changes to Netflix has made doing so increasingly difficult. END NOTE. Films that available on Netflix for "instant watching" (streamable online). I limit the collection mostly to films that have a netflix predicted rating of 4-5 stars. I do this to keep the list manageable, but my TCI to IMDB is fairly high (1.7), so hopefully this will still be useful to many of you. Note that it will take me longer to remove films below my rating threshold added by other users as I do not have a good way to track when they are removed by Netflix (which limits queues to 500 entries). I appreciate any tips about films being removed. If you see one that's gone, please let me know. Don't let this stop you from adding films to the collection though. If you add a film, it would be helpful to me if you could keep it in your queue until netflix delists it (it'll show up separately in your queue then), and when that happens, send me a message so I can remove it. Thanks! Public Collection created on Apr 05 2009 by somnivore, and last updated by 5Z5qjRCfM2 Latest addition: The Lost Okoroshi
