7. Film noir

Jan 2014

most recently, a colorized version of "The Fastest Gun Alive" which isn't nearly as good as the original version, but when you find one for $12.00 vs a b&w version for $30.00, you take what you can get.

Most of the noir films I find are from sellers on eBay or IOffer, and the films they sell are out of print, no longer available, and in the public domain, some I own are pretty rare, but they're a niche, you have to like and get into really old films.
