Review of Bob le Flambeur (1956) by Scott R — 03 Feb 2018
A french film inspired by American noir, said to be known as Jarmuch's favorite film and one of Tarentino's too. It's about a gambler and retired crook is a known man in his area. Everyone nows Bob. He's got lots of friends and a few enemies. He treats most people nicely and knows what's up in his surroundings. This true G is starting to get short on money, so he's planning a robbery at a casino. It's planning takes time and effort, but we he get around in stylich ways.
The film looks really good. It got some tension and is filled with cliches but they are not badly played at all - it gives a classic vibe. It even got that pretty girl music when the young bi-role enter her scenes. A smart piece of work with especially a great last part. Brilliant stuff, actually!
My second film in ten days from Melville and I'm planning to see more the next couple of weeks.
8.5 out of 10 casino chips.
