series Edgar Wright Presents Heist Society
Directed by Robert Wise | 1959
With Harry Belafonte, Robert Ryan, Shelley Winters
“The great Robert Wise stages a gritty robbery-gone-wrong picture that ranks among the best of his film noirs.”
—EDGAR WRIGHT
Both in desperate need of money, a black nightclub singer (Belafonte) and a racist ex-con (Ryan) find themselves roped into working together to pull off a bank job—an explosive situation that threatens to sabotage the entire scheme. Boasting gritty New York location shooting and a memorably moody jazz score, Robert Wise’s tough-as-nails noir has the distinction of being the favorite film of French crime auteur Jean-Pierre Melville.
