THE SICILIAN CLAN
Special Features: 4K DCP
[LE CLAN DES SICILIENS]
In Henri Verneuil's classic heist thriller, Alain Delon portrays escaped fugitive Roger Sartet, a jewel thief taken in by a Sicilian crime boss (the great Jean Gabin). Sartet offers the gang a plan he learned in prison for a daring diamond heist, which they set in motion despite the relentless pursuit of a dogged detective played by Lino Ventura. The real pitfall, however, is Sartet's play for the boss' daughter-in-law (Irina Demick). Gallic testosterone runs amok in this high-flying thriller, enhanced in no small measure by Ennio Morricone's evocative score. (Note courtesy of Noir City.)
