Review

 

The Film Noir Collection contains these 5 classic films:

The Asphalt Jungle: (112 Min) Tension builds as a bunch of small-time losers gather for a jewel heist. "Doc" Riedenschneider has returned from prison with a plan for the million dollar theft. Financing is handled by Alonzo Emmerich, a crooked lawyer. Also runnign with Doc are driver Gus Missini and Dix Handley. Although the robbery goes off as planned, the thieves soon have a falling-out.
Gun Crazy: (86 Min) Taut noir about couple fatally attracted to guns and to each other. Its reckless romance, brisk pace and dynamic camerawork make this compelling viewing for fans of classic crime drama.
Murder My Sweet: (95 Min) His name is Phillip Marlowe, and for the right price he'll follow an unfaithful husband, find a missing bankroll, or spy on a suspicious neighbor. And when he's drawn into a complex web of murder, blackmail and double-dealing, the result is the quintessential film-noir--the one that set the standard for the genre.
Out Of The Past: (97 Min) Former private detective Jeff Bailey is trying to live a quiet life, but his past comes back to haunt him. He was once hired by a gambler to find his runaway girlfriend, Kathy. Jeff traced her to Mexico and fell in love. She lured him into double-crossing the gambler, but it was really Jeff who got double-crossed. Years later, Jeff's quiet life is once again shattered as his old criminal associates descend on him. Now he's in deep trouble - someone is trying to frame him for murder.
The Set-Up: (72 Min) An over-the-hill boxer thinks he can still win a bout, despite doubts from his wife and his manager. He goes into his next fight determined to beat his opponent, not realizing his manager has taken money for a "dive" from a tough gambler. Played out in real time.
