Review of Le Samouraï (1967) by Tim M — 13 Jul 2013
"Fedoras and trench coats. Film noir in cool blues and greens. Le Samourai is the real deal." Rui Nogueira feels this is Melville's "most perfect, purest and noblest film". If by pure he means minimalist, that's true.
This movie is "haunting and elegantly spare, just right for the kind of hitman who lives in silence, in bare and colorless surroundings, with a lonely caged bird.".
