I think of the stark high contrast black and white photography and angle shots. Not all noir is of the "Double Indemnity"/"Body Heat" type as there is even a western shot in noir style.
"Collateral" made much use of the color of the Los Angeles sky at night when the smog reflects the city's light back below, producing a unique color only to be found there.

Sin City looks like the film noir for you - Peterloplop 14:06:04 12/21/04 (0)
You can get a featurette/trailer thingy here (right click and save so you can watch it fullscreen).
Its a pretty big file so dial-uppers probably shouldnt bother and it plays on newer versions of quicktime (free at apple ).
