    A very wonderful noir film from 1955, the film tells the story of four men who steal a batch of jewelry, are then targeted by their enemies, and finally compete for the jewelry, which makes the situation spiral out of control, and finally the story of both money and money. The type of story is similar to Kubrick's "Killers", and the meticulous stalking, tense theft and hearty duel keep this film in a very smooth...

    At first, I thought it was a relaxed and happy bank robbery like Ocean11, but black crime films obviously don't use small cleverness to appease the audience, black, realistic, and gangster-style heroism. The half-hour jewelry theft has no lines or background music, and follows the characters in fear of the hum of the tools; the plot unfolds in full after the jewelry theft, and the final scene of driving around Paris is shot like a stroller on the battleship Potemkin...

    The half-hour stealing scene is the best in the history of filmmaking, which is the direct source of "Red Circle". Even if you are going to do three hours of civil engineering, you have to wear a dress suit and don't lose it (except for Joe). The silhouette dance of the song and dance section seems to have influenced Michael Jackson, and the constantly chanting RIFIFI has become a secret language. Brotherhood and black eating were inherited by Hong Kong directors such as Johnnie To. Saying...

    A noir crime movie from the 50s, full of silent theft scenes. Du Qifeng is definitely deeply influenced by Da Xin. The elements of black eating black and fate in the former work are exactly the same as this...

    From 41 minutes to 72 minutes, the whole half-hour burglary scene did not have a single dialogue, but it still made people nervous and breathless. It was...

    Too beautiful! In the middle section, a few jewelry thieves sneak in, and the division of labor is clear and successful in getting the diamonds. For about half an hour, the whole film is completely silent, and no one speaks a word (even when the camera cuts to passers-by and police outside the house, they do the same thing). …), with only eye-popping movements. Seeing the uncle next door eating popcorn, in order not to spoil the atmosphere, he swallowed it slowly? (It turns out that the red...

    8.4 A fight between men is all about women. There are two scenes without dialogue, but they are quite exciting. One is a 27-minute stealing scene, which is calm and thoughtful and ingenious; The strokes of the gods are completely...

    The well-designed illegal gains will be lost in the end; in the future, you must be very cautious in cooperating with lecherous men and men who are too generous to...

    The thinness or even contempt of women's perspective is really a bit out of place, especially at the end, but putting it back in the work itself may not violate harmony. After all, the whole film is a show of naive male...

    A year earlier than Ku's "The Killer" and Melville's "Fever," Dassin is a shit! The plot rhythm and character rhythm are beautiful, the sharp transition between the two parts, the final editing and the closing. And women, women in old-fashioned gangster films are always dragging their feet, and Dassin is a little weaker on this point. But it has to be still exciting, especially in the first half of the stealing...

    Tony le Stéphanois: Is opens when?

    Jo le Suedois: Late. "Tecla," cultured pearls, costume junk. Opens at 10:00. Florist. Salesgirl has the biggest boobs in town.

  • Viviane: [singing] I got a guy who knows what's what, He ain't the kind to bust a gut, He's got lotsa philosophy, Only he's too sweet on "rififi," If another guy just gives me a nod, Right away he goes for his rod, He tips his hat and yes, sirree! It's time for some "rififi," I step in, but he don't give a damn, He points me out and says: scram! And when he's back after a while, He's got this nasty little smile, And sure as sure can be, I'm next in line for "rififi"...
