well, they're mostly mentioned in the thread already, but you're right, it would be a good idea to group them all together. here are two to start us off :

the thin man (comedy AND mystery ! it's actually a series, and i think all are worth watching at least once but the quality does diminish as you go along, and the last one is pretty terrible)
the big sleep (bogart and bacall)

there is also the list that was linked previously ; all the genres are mixed together but there are several in there.

Double Indemnity and the Postman Always Rings Twice must be on any mystery list of 40's films. Especially Double Indemnity

Ooh another Cary Grant classic, well a couple we might have overlooked - Arsenic and Old Lace, and the Bishop's Wife.

Before DivX took down Stage6 you could watch all these films on there, including Arsenic and Old Lace. That film was made 65 years ago. It should not, by any reasonable person's standards, be still under Copyright. Oh well.
