The Killing (1956)
8/10
Murphy's Law
25 January 2022
This movie is a veritable tribute to Murphy's Law which famously states that "anything that can go wrong, will". In this film noir crime drama a meticulously-planned robbery is carried out but, as the saying goes, crime does not pay. At least, in Hollywood it doesn't. How and why everything goes pear-shaped is the gist of the story, and I won't give any of that away. However, a classic cast of film noir character actors, under the brilliant direction of a young Stanley Kubrick, makes it all well worth seeing.
