Watch Nightcrawler

Three cops, a diner massacre and Kim Basinger as a Veronica Lake lookalike; 1950s noir done right.

Jack Nicholson with a slit nose, the water wars of Los Angeles and "forget it, Jake".

Gosling's stunt driver in a scorpion jacket, synth-pop and a lift; Refn's neon LA.

Watch the classic 1986 film Blue Velvet directed by David Lynch

Alain Delon as a hitman in a trench coat and fedora; Melville's cool influenced every hitman film since.

Five criminals in a line-up and Keyser Soze; the ending everybody replayed.

Robert Pattinson's detective Batman in a rain-soaked Gotham hunting the Riddler.

A cop in the triads and a triad in the police; the film The Departed remade.
