Review of Le Samouraï (1967) by Rafael T — 27 Jan 2016
A mesmerazing film from the first shot, The use of lighting in this film it's like seeing a painter brush in motion, the pace is perfect, the tension gripping,. Melville proofs beyond all doubts that he was one of the greatest european directors of all times, altough his influence is seldom mentioned nowadays.
This is one of the best examples of modern Film Noir, and Alain Delon shines (along with a very consistent cast) as one of the most cold blooded, unapologetic and smooth killers ever put to screen. Definitively a must see for any movie lover.
