Review of Bob le Flambeur (1956) by Mike M — 21 Jun 2007
You can see its influence on the following year's "The Killing", which is by far the punchier film, but it has qualities of its own to admire: quickfire editing, the usual grittiness of Melville's mean-street photography, and an astonishingly sexy performance - easily the equal of the young Monroe in "The Asphalt Jungle" - by Isabelle Corey as a moll on the make.
