meville caper film is not as good as his most famous movie and the deliciously stylish le samourai (1968). i do not even think this is the best example of the much loved heist subgenre. the main thing against the film is its long running time. meville has this tendency of concentrating on too many trivial details. he could have told the same story in a relative short time and but for reasons that i do not understand and the film seems to go on and on. still and the movie is never boring. melville direction impressed me and the cast is very good and especially alain delon as a very cool master thief. the movie must see color photography is a great asset and melville uses sound (or lack of sound) in a very effective manner. from a technical standpoint and the movie is practically flawless. at times and one gets the feeling that meville is merely showing off and but when someone is as talented as he is and one has little reason to complain. i still like other heist movies a little bit more (jules dassin topkapi (1964) and just to name one) and but there is no denying that this film is a good piece of pulp entertainment and a good example of what people refer to as cool cinema.
