    The 1990s had a particular style and sensibility in film making. I saw a 1990s film which was black and white and was about a man who takes up steeling from people who are oblivious.

    Can anyone remember a decent british 1990s indy or otherwise black and white/film noir film which they care to mention? or even name the one I've forgotten above?

    The IMDb lists loads of them.

    Go to the Power Search page

    Set the following

    Country: UK

    Year: 1990-1999

    Color: Black and White

    TV movies: Exclude TV movies

    Direct to video: Exclude videos

    TV series: Exclude TV series

    TV episodes: Exclude TV episodes

    and it will still find 182 titles



    Some of those might be a mixture of colour and B&W. You can't search for JUST B&W in this search



    You can refine it further by specifying minimum ratings to get the best known or most popular titles

    In the Bleak Midwinter, a hilarious film directed by Kenneth Branagh is a black & white film that springs to mind.

    The film is probably Christopher 'Batman' Nolan's Following; his debut before being whisked off to Hollywood.
