Loft (NL, 2010)
Semi-stylish, semi-interesting thriller, but it's a bit too busy/clever, with too many twists, personnel and subplots, and overemphasis on what initially seems like incidental dialogue.

The Big Steal (US, 1949)
Light and enjoyable, there's little by way of noir photography in it, but the slightly madcap plot and witty dialogue are noir.
