He lights a cigarette, and smoke coils up toward a wisp of light from the window. After a time the man gets up, fully dressed, and moves to a hat stand near the door.

   How good is Le Samourai?

   • Le Samouraï makes the most of its spare aesthetic, using stylish -- and influential -- direction, solid performances, and thick atmosphere to weave an absorbing story. An austere poem of crime, Le Samourai manages to have a grip of an old-fashioned potboiler as well. Not a half-bad combination.

   Is Le Samoura a good movie?

   • Le Samouraï. A captivating and brilliant masterpiece from Jean-Pierre Melville. Alain Delon plays an absolutely great character with Jef Costello, and the way this film looks is just phenomenal. The lighting sets the entire tone, and the smooth jazz score elevates that tone to a completely different level.

   Is 'Le Samourai' based on a true story?

   • There is nothing absolutely original in "Le Samourai" except for the handling of the material. Melville pares down and leaves out. He disdains artificial action sequences and manufactured payoffs. He drains the color from his screen and the dialogue from his characters.

   Apr 25, 2014 · If Breathless is a thrilling joke with armchair philosophy, Le Samouraï is an exacting wintry gaze into the lonely human condition. Alain Delon gives Costello startling emotional breadth beneath his chilled stare: his is a performance of masterful subtlety.
