Friday
COMMUNITY
Retro Film Club: "Le Samouraï"
A 1967 crime neo-noir directed by Jean-Pierre Melville, this is one of the most influential European films in the genre. Alain Delon stars as Jeff Costello, a professional hitman: a silent, cold man who lives by his own code of honor. Minimalist aesthetics, atmospheric music, and absolute control over every frame. The film is still studied in film schools around the world.
