    This is a story of search and loss. Everyone is looking for a chance in the precipitous and degraded world. They are the victims of this unscrupulous hunting game. There is no real crime, justice or heroism, no passion, and even anger is often misfired. They all faced being abandoned and forgotten, and they died in the ruthless and guilty world in the eyes of the...

    #SIFF#Rewatch; Melville can always portray crimes gracefully, calmly, and restraint. Jewelry shop steals a whole piece of highlights in the film, dexterous as a cat, and the undercurrent covered by silence rolls over, as in Bresson’s "Death Prison Escape"; The pessimistic fate has already been written, and the red circle has already drawn you into a...

    Very personal style film, short dialogue, cold atmosphere, 20 minutes of classic robbery scenes, cool and melancholic Deron, precise details of Yves, and many...

Le Cercle Rouge quotes

  • Le chef de la police: And don't forget: All guilty.

    Le Commissaire Mattei: Even policemen?

    Le chef de la police: All men, Mr. Mattei

  • Vogel: Between shooting two men six feet away and hitting a target at 100 feet there's a certain difference. It's the difference between an amateur and a professional. And, despite all appearances, I'm not professional.
