On the Edges of Noir

     I would always look upon Treasure of Sierra Madre, Paths of Glory, etc as really Noirs in disguise but many other movies must have a strong element of Noirish theme/ influence for them to appeal in such a strong way. In some cases it may be down to dark style/appearance or subject matter involving trust and betrayal.
