(France, 1954)
directed by Jacques Becker, starring Jean Gabin, Lino Ventura, Jeanne Moreau
b/w, 94', 35mm Italian dubbed version
Max, a gangster, wants to get back the loot (the "grisbi" in French Mafia jargon) that he stashed away. But many unexpected twists and reversals of fortune work against him, including the kidnap of his partner Riton and his betrayal by the beautiful Josy.  Set in one of the most charming night-time Paris backdrops, Jean Gabin plays his most famous character, well served by Becker's inspired direction and supported by a marvelous cast. A key work of the "French noir" genre, Grisbi is a also a touching celebration of male friendship.
