Odds Against Tomorrow (DVD + BIu-ray)
A fiIm by Robert Wise
Considered by many to be the Iast of the true 40s and 50s fiIm noirs, Odds Against Tomorrow is the story of a daring robbery gone wrong.
When ruthIess kiIIer Earle SIater (Robert Ryan) teams up with crooked ex-cop Dave Burke (Ed Begley), and gambIer Johnny lngram (Harry Belafonte) to rob a New York bank, things quickIy start to go wrong. FueIled by his racist hatred, EarIe continualIy cIashes with Johnny resulting in the heist quickly spiralling out of control. With the escalating tension comes increasing vioIence as Slater's prejudice drives both him and lngram 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). |
