After being blacklisted in America, director Jules Dassin took his talents to France (and later onto an international stage) making a masterpiece of film noir excitement and suspense – Rififi. The blueprint for every subsequent caper and heist film made in all the decades since, Rififi has the look and feel of a genuine classic, a movie so brilliant that the director even stole from himself in fashioning another suspense caper a decade later – Topkapi.
