For anyone who isn't only enjoying the film noir feel of skid row, but
is actually living on skid row and can't afford to rent any movies, free film noir is an invaluable
source of entertainment.
Free in this instance just means free of copyright, but of course this generally means you can watch a bunch of these films on archive.org or on public uploads made to YouTube.
Directors beware. Failure to renew copyright can default your masterpiece to the List of Films in the Public Domain in the USA.
