View (at least) three of the feature films from the list below (one war film, one film noir, and one neo-noir) and document.
At the very least, for films record the title, director, year, and country of origin [most for this class will be U.S.], and then feel free to
include whatever other info you want (actors, writers, cinematographer, etc.). Also write a brief description/impression (at least one or two
substantive paragraphs, 50-100 words minimum) of the film and your response to it. It would also be helpful to include a link to the film, such as
to IMDB [International Movie Data Base], Netflix, or Amazon.com,
