I liked The Man from Reno.

Mullholland Drive and Lost Highway are maybe obvious choices?

Angel Heart

I don't know why it came immediately to mind because it's not a conventional noir film, but did you ever see Mud starring Matthew McConaughey? It's a southern style noir film and truly excellent.

First thing I thought of, because I've been meaning to watch it again after 15+ years, is Dead Man (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Man)
