Rififi
After making such American noir classics as "The Naked City"
and "Brute Force", blacklisted director Jules Dassin went
to Paris and embarked on his masterpiece: a twisting, turning tale of
four ex-cons who hatch one last glorious heist in the
City of Lights. At once naturalistic and expressionistic, Rififi
is a melange of suspense, brutality, and dark humor. Starring: Jean
Servais, Carl Möhner, Robert Manuel, Jules Dassin, Marie Sabouret,
Janine Darcey, Claude Sylvain, Marcel Lupovici, Pierre Grasset and Robert
Hossein.
