A masterful crime thriller by Melville with one of the most intricate heist sequences ever shot.
This moody piece detailing the state-of-mind of several members of the French Resistance during WWII is arguably Melville’s greatest work and one of the finest films ever made about the subject.
This slow-burner suspense classic, and one of Melville’s most influential works, is an excellent character study of the ‘hitman’.
A sensually shot if also subtly erotic take on religion and desire, handled with deft skill by the great Melville.
Twists and revelations are aplenty in this intricately-plotted, suspense-driven crime noir that sees Melville and Belmondo collaborate for the second time.ย
Melvilleโs sly if laidback anti-heist noir (if there ever was one) is an absorbing take on how individuals and the collective operate in matters of vice and deception.
