BAMcinématek 2017
series Edgar Wright Presents Heist Society
Directed by Joseph H. Lewis | 1950
With John Dall, Peggy Cummins, Berry Kroeger
“One of the greatest film noirs, this Joseph H. Lewis romance/robbery thriller paved the way for 'Bonnie & Clyde' years later.”
—EDGAR WRIGHT
One of the greatest, most inventive of all B movies is a breathless, couple-on-the-run noir in which two star-crossed sharpshooters spark over their shared fireman fixation, get hitched, and take off on a cross-country crime spree—all leading up to the delirious, swamp-set finale. Director Joseph H. Lewis’ whiz-bang, dime-store poetry would be studied and later imitated by the young Turks of the French New Wave.
