Second film of our new adventure cycle is as classic Melville, the French master of Film Noir!
Synopsis: Three crooks prepare a robbery. A cop runs after them. Simple, right? But wait until you see how Melville drew inspiration from American gangster films to adapt into 1970s France, and you will watch an ultra-cool, stylised classic film noir, where true heroes of our times are solitary men who speak few and get into action. Forget John Woo and settle on a Huston-esque picture carried on by all-star French vintage cast: Alain Delon, Yves Montand, Bourvil and Italian Gian-Maria Volontè.
