L.A. Confidential too, guess there are some good ones I hadn't thought of.
Still I prefer my Noir in B&W.
How did I forget that contemporary classic?

Anyway, your preference originates when noirs were the new genre on the block. The three color ones were all self-consciously film noirs; that is they were styling these films on something that had long past. Not a particularly important distinction, but perhaps an interesting one. B&W obviously adds to the dark atmosphere.
