From legendary director Jean-Pierre Melville comes an underworld comedy of manners. "Bob Le Flambeur" melds the toughness of American gangster films with Gallic sophistication to lay the roadmap for the French New Wave. An aging gambler (Roger Duchesne) navigates the treacherous world of pimps, moneymen and naïve associates while plotting one last score-the heist of the Deauville casino.

Screen legend Jeanne Moreau stars in this twisty, mood-drenched film noir from acclaimed crime writer Frédéric Dard. When a wealthy industrialist discovers that his wife (Moreau) is having an affair with a young actor, he decides to exact revenge by blackmailing her under an assumed identity in director Édouard Molinaro’s stylish tour de force.
