Criminal, The
UK 1960, 93 minutes, B / W
Dir. Joseph Losey
Genres: Classics, Suspense/Crime / Film Noir
Feat. Sam Wanamaker, Gregoire Aslan
Aroview: Joseph-Losey-directed crime drama of a con sent to prison after a profitable robbery who is tortured by his fellow prisoners to leak where the cash is hidden. A film noir look and unyielding cast selection ensure this is a worthwhile prison drama, controversial at its release for inclusion of nudity and black actors.

3 stars (Good Enough) For a film from 1960 this one is fast-moving and very densely-plotted. Often stylish, and prison sequences are brutal. Great performances from a large cast. Worth a watch. ~Toby Dammit
