Somewhere in the Night (US, 1946)

The YT copy is of good quality, and while the film isn't bad, it's not the most convincing of noirs. The quality of the supporting cast (Richard Conte et al) has been commented upon.

Night Moves (US, 1975)

Another from the golden age of gritty and sometimes gloomily conspirational mid-1970's American cinema (of which there are a few reviewed elsewhere on this blog - Chinatown, Point Blank (1967), The Parallax View).

Baby Face Nelson (US, 1956)

Mickey Rourke in the title role as an aggressive, trigger happy mobster.
