    "What's your greatest ambition?" "To become immortal, and then die." Damn, now that's a line of dialogue.

    I'm a big fan of Jean-Pierre Melville 's films. In Le Cercle Rouge - as seen in this video - we could see Gian Maria Volonté re-enter the trunk of the car while smoking a sigaret ! That I find very funny. But at the same time also a sign of stubbornness and resistance to every convention within the bourgeoisie of the day.

    Good video and Melville is a super interesting director! You could use some work on your sound recording though. :)

    Great content, but the music often overwhelms the voiceover. It was kind of hard to follow at times as a result.

    After being quite intrigued for over 20 years with Melville's films and his personal wartime history, i'm convinced there are much deeper layers in his films that wants to show us things drastically changed in Europe after the war and not for the better. I see big disillusion with those who won and what they have become. The police is often shown as a well organized and very oppressive force. It's no secret he wanted to portray the so called 'gangsters' as honourable men of the resistance who try to sabotage the system and keep out of their hands, just like in nazi occupied France during the war. Nothing is what it seems.
