I've definitely been seeing film noir a lot :) There are a bunch of minority genres that are used, but not listed at https://www.themoviedb.org/genre.
To get manually to the list of a genre that is not listed on the main page add the number shown below to this URL, replacing XX:

I'm talking about adding Genres when creating or editing a movie.
It's quite frustrating that many still aren't available. I see there's been dozens of Musicals entered recently but they're all being mis-tagged as music. No film noir. No Holiday or Sports.

My hands are tied with anything and everything to do with genres until this thread is resolved. It will be getting dealt with at some point, and hopefully soon, but there's nothing I can do right now.
