Review of Le Samouraï (1967) by Andrey B — 20 Nov 2017
Effective French crime movie about a lone wolf, "samourai", wih icy performance from Alain Delon. Memorable ambient jazzy soundtrack creates a bleak and solemn atmosphere. Actually this movie is perfect: it's pacing is just right, it doesn't hurry and it doesn't drag; constructed perfectly.
Melville as a director prefers faces to words: facial expressions tell way more than hundreds of words, and so in this movie you can tell a lot about characters' inner worlds just watching their countenances.
