Review of Elevator to the Gallows (1958) by Sakari L — 16 Jul 2008
This French version of a noir thriller oozes continental coolness - realized in perfect style, it anticipated the new rise of European cinema. But despite the brief allusion to the colonial wars, its merits are mostly on the formal side - especially the Miles Davis score stands out.
