BOB LE FLAMBEUR
FRANCE 1956
DIRECTOR: JEAN-PIERRE MELVILLE
In the tradition of the great gangster films of the 1930s, Melville’s finest film is the story of an aging safe-cracker and compulsive gambler who passes like a prince through the nightclubs and darkened streets of Paris. One day broke and down on his luck, he masterminds the biggest gamble of his life—the robbery of the Deauville Casino. Melville captures the ambiance and the Pigalle underworld with great affection in a very personal blending of crime and comedy—his love letter to a Paris gone by. (98 mins.)
