A sexy romantic drama, a neo-noir crime film about a suspected deadly drug war, and a mystery-thriller involving police corruption - all in The Big Easy (1986) - plus the backdrop of the city of New Orleans, LA. With Dennis Quaid and Ellen Barkin, see Filmsite's illustrated review: https://lnkd.in/gtxKSUsX

Film Noir encompasses many recommended films ->> Alexander Mackendrick's Sweet Smell of Success (1957) - an intense, dark and menacing example of greed, corruption, cynicism, betrayal, and brutality beneath New York City's glitter - with two powerhouse performances by Tony Curtis and Burt Lancaster.

Director Alfred Hitchcock's final film Family Plot (1976) was both a mystery-crime thriller and a dark comedy parody - it told a well-constructed tale of character disguises and deceit, kidnapping and extortion, an empty family grave plot, swindlers and the lure of money. See Filmsite's illustrated synopsis: https://lnkd.in/gVSQg3dx

Alfred Hitchcock's tawdry and bleak R-rated psychological-horror crime thriller - with dark humor and his typical "wrong man" theme - told about a serial necktie killer in London committing gruesome murders. See Filmsite's illustrated review: https://lnkd.in/giZJZdNG

Even though slow-paced and plodding, director Hitchcock's Cold War-era political espionage spy-thriller Topaz (1969), a retelling of the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, is worth a look. See Filmsite's illustrated review: https://lnkd.in/g2Hmvud6

Alfred Hitchcock's mid-60s, war-time political/spy thriller Torn Curtain (1966) was a Cold War-era cloak-and-dagger tale of intrigue, suspense and subterfuge - with two big stars Paul Newman and Julie Andrews as an engaged couple 'behind the curtain'.

Be ready to be shocked by Alfred Hitchcock's Marnie (1964) - a psycho-sexual, crime and romance suspense-thriller - a really dark tale of frigidity, marital rape, murder, repressed memories, shifting identities and compulsive thievery. See an illustrated synopsis at https://lnkd.in/gpxGJAsH

Alfred Hitchcock's landmark horror-thriller classic The Birds (1963) remains a fantastic, believable apocalyptic tale about an onslaught of seemingly unexplained, arbitrary and chaotic attacks of ordinary birds. See the illustrated film review at: https://lnkd.in/gM596m-h

Alfred Hitchcock's complex, ground-breaking psychological horror thriller Psycho (1960) - the "mother" of all modern horror suspense and "slasher" films, remains very impressive. See the detailed, illustrated review-synopsis at Filmsite: https://lnkd.in/gTpdT-7u
