Le Cercle Rouge was proposed for our 4th Birthday celebrations by Garden Cinema member Mo Abdelrahman.
Alain Delon plays a master thief, fresh out of prison, who crosses paths with a notorious escapee (Gian Maria Volontè) and an alcoholic ex-cop (Yves Montand). The unlikely trio plot a heist, against impossible odds, until a relentless inspector and their own pasts seal their fates. With its honorable antiheroes, coolly atmospheric cinematography, and breathtaking set pieces, Le Cercle Rouge is the quintessential film by Jean-Pierre Melville - the master of ambiguous, introspective crime cinema.
This screening will finish at 15:20.
