Le Samouraï
In a career-defining performance, Alain Delon plays a contract killer with samurai instincts. A razor-sharp cocktail of 1940s American gangster cinema and 1960s French pop culturewith a liberal dose of Japanese lone-warrior mythologymaverick director Jean-Pierre Melville's masterpiece Le Samouraï defines cool. - Janus Films
"[Melville's] style remains haunting and elegantly spare, just right for the kind of hit man who lives in silence, in bare and colorless surroundings, with a lonely caged bird." - Janet Maslin, New York Times
"Cold, masterly, without pathos, and not even particularly sympathetic; it has the noble structure of accuracy." - Penelope Gilliatt, New Yorker
