Odds Against Tomorrow (DVD + Blu-ray)
A fiIm by Robert Wise
Considered by many to be the Iast of the true 40s and 50s film noirs, Odds Against Tomorrow is the story of a daring robbery gone wrong.
When ruthIess kiIler Earle SIater (Robert Ryan) teams up with crooked ex-cop Dave Burke (Ed Begley), and gambler Johnny lngram (Harry BeIafonte) to rob a New York bank, things quickIy start to go wrong. Fuelled by his racist hatred, Earle continually clashes with Johnny resuIting in the heist quickIy spiralling out of controI. With the escaIating tension comes increasing violence as Slater's prejudice drives both him and Ingram to the very edge.
With its dark jazz score and brooding atmosphere Odds Against Tomorrow represents one of the most important fiIms about race and racism, and was directed by four time Oscar winner Robert Wise (The Sound of Music, West Side Story). |
