L.A. confidential is one of my faves. I guess broken city and dead man down would qualify for more recent films.
Asher Thompson

Evan Anderson
great choices anons
some of my favourites:
Night Moves
Body Heat (it's not exactly about a private detective but it's still very noir-ish and a great watch)
The Long Goodbye
Klute
Hardcore
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
The Conversation (main guy is a surveillance expert, so basically like a PI)
Cutter's Way
Jayden Turner
Klute is great, but Fonda outshines Sutherland by miles.
Isaiah Richardson
The Robert Altman "The Long Goodbye" from 1973 is fantastic.
Parker Miller
Not OP, but wrong Night Moves you fucking imbecile
Luis Foster
>Klute
>Hardcore
>Cutter's Way
I haven't seen any of these. Good recs.
Jordan Moore
8MM, the snuff-movie-thriller with nicholas cage, was basically a remake of "Hardcore".
Xavier Cox
Zodiac
LA Confidential
Prisoners
Gone Girl
The Girl with the dragon tattoo (sort of pseudo-detective work anyway)
Se7en
Mystic River
Fargo
The Usual suspects
The Departed
Primal Fear (more on the legal side but still)
Silence of the Lambs
Training Day
/thread.
Xavier Collins
Basic bitch.
Juan Price
I just watched that a few weeks ago.It was a little more "popcorny" than I expected but I still really liked it.
>Mystic River
Oooh this is on HBO right now. Might watch it tonight.
Ethan Allen
Fuck. Okay, what's the one they make everyone watch in film 101- it's like babby's first noir- where the first 2/3's are done entirely in flashback? Like the protag is some detective or something and falls in love with the girl he's investigating and then goes into hiding and opens up a gas station in a small town?
I'm really blanking here.
David Adams
Answered my own stupid question with just a little googling- Out of the Past.
Kayden Walker
embarrassed to say ive never heard of this. sounds great.
Jaxon Williams

Adrian Allen

Glad you sound interested, but as a precaution I wouldn't go around bragging about it if you have strong opinions one way or the other because it's really some entry level shit.
And hey! Just for being a sport, here's the iconic opening shot to Touch of Evil by Orsen Welles in case you haven't seen that one either.
Samuel Richardson
The Maltese Falcon if you want a noir detective film. Most of Hitchcock's great films aren't necessarily focused on detectives, but do focus on uncovering mysteries if that's what you're looking for.
Luke Murphy
how has no one mentioned this yet?
Oliver Taylor
There was a private detective?
Robert Russell
This movie has such a trippy ending
Cooper Roberts
