Moorman Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I might have a favorite new director. I mean Jean- Pierre Melville is brilliant. I can see almost the entire Hollywood one man thriller being invented with this one film, Le Samourai. Alain Delon plays Jef Costello, a lone hit man. The beautiful Cathy Rosier plays pianist Valerie. This is a stylized COOL film. I can see where Michael Mann most likely got his entire way of making these films from Le Samourai. Henri Decae again does the cinematography for Melville. Francois de Roubaix does the excellent scoring for the film. I'm getting lazy. Most of you have seen the film.... another 10 out of 10.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
