The Apartment
Sunset Blvd
Double Indemnity
The Seven Year Itch
One, Two, Three

But I haven't seen Some Like It Hot yet (one of my biggest holes in my film-viewing experiences), so that could easily bump One, Two, Three.

That said, I feel like One, Two, Three doesn't get enough credit for being as genius as it is and should be better recognised.

There’s a few I haven’t seen either, something I'll have to rectify too, Some Like it Hot is a classic comedy but I prefer Film Noir so it sits at number 3 for me.

I love noir. But my favourite noirs just don't happen to be Sunset Blvd and Double Indemnity. Maltese Falcon and Big Sleep - Bogey all the way.
