Chinatown badly needs a rewatch, so for now Sunset Boulevard easily wins.

"Flip a coin! (Better than watching either of these.) - what the little joke above the movies actually says. Both great noirs, but I'm going with Sunset

Tough! I find Chinatown's plot more intriguing while Sunset has more interesting themes. Right now, Sunset is higher on my chart, but they're both top 50 for sure. I'll leave it be for now.

They're pretty equal in my mind. So I'll give it to the list

Chinatown in a blowout.

As great as Sunset Boulevard was, it really pales next to Chinatown, which I believe is the clear choice here.
