Some i knew, others i took a lucky guess on but there was two i should not have got wrong as i was well aware of them.
One was a Marilyn Monroe film noir and the other was "Night and the City" film.

I confess it's only in the last year or two that I have really started investigating film noirs to any great degree. I got 3, 6, and 9 wrong. And number 1 was right - but a guess.
I have been thinking of importing some of Kino's 3-pack film noir blu ray sets - not least because three classic films for £30 is better than the normal one for £20. But at the moment, there are higher things on my wish list!

So you scored 27/30, good job. I was 24/30.
It was out of 30? I think I missed pages 2 and 3 then!!!
