Canada Movie Reviews of Dirty MoneyMovie Review: Melville's final film
This film was the last made by John-Pierre Melville. As is typical for Melville, the most American of the French directors, it's a caper flick. Oddly, while it has one of his favorite French actors (Alain Delon) in it, he also has American actor Richard Crenna in one of the dual lead roles. Full of the usual Melville touches, particularly the long static shots and long silences, it fails to reach the heights of his finest movies. Though not a bad film, it's not a great film. If you've never seen a Melville film before, start with either Bob Le Flambeur(1955) or Le Deuxieme Souffle (Second Wind)(1966), then once you're hooked, come back to this one.
