Thief [DVD]
1.  Thief [DVD] DVD ~ James Caan

2.  Out of the Past [DVD] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] DVD ~ Robert Mitchum

  "Like with Thief, this has got a guy who just can't escape his life as a criminal. The best film noir ever made - period. Robert Mitchum elegantly stoned I think."

Wonder Boys [DVD] [2000]
4.  Wonder Boys [DVD] [2000] DVD ~ Michael Douglas

The Naked Kiss/Shock Corridor [DVD]
5.  The Naked Kiss/Shock Corridor [DVD] DVD ~ Peter Breck
The list author says:
