Kixott Movie Nights: Le Samouraï
March 8, 2023 @ 8:00 pm - 9:45 pm
You may be cool, but you sure as hell ain’t Alain Delon-at-his-peak cool.
That’s just something you’ll have to deal with for the rest of your life, so you may as well start processing now.
A key part of that process would begin with sitting down to watch Le Samouraï, one of the seminal collaborations between Delon and director Jean-Pierre Melville.
It’s a European neo-noir of such slick quality that it has gone on to influence the likes to Walter Hill, John Woo, Jim Jarmusch and Nicolas Winding Refn, along with countless others.
Like any classic, despite emerging from a very specific historical context, its core still thrums with an unsurpassed stylistic power, and it remains a delight to sit through to this day.
