JULES DASSIN | FRANCE | 1955 | 118 MIN | R | FRENCH 

Kurosawa’s SEVEN SAMURAI may have firmly established the cinematic trope of building an A-Team, but Jules Dassin’s French caper RIFIFI cemented the procedural thrill of seeing professional thieves unite, plan, and enact the perfect heist. With a breathtaking, nearly dialogue-free, thirty minute jewelry store robbery. it still remains riveting nearly 70 years later.

Cast: Jean Servais, Carl Möhner, Jules Dassin
