Summer.”</em></p> <p>Jules Dassin was one of cinema’s most inventive, raw, soulful, intelligent auteurs. With movies like <em>Thieves’ Highway</em>, <em>Brute Force</em>, <em>The Naked City</em> and my favorite, <em>Night and the City</em> (featuring Richard Widmark’s greatest, most desperate, most quintessential noir performance) and the brilliant <em>Rififi</em> and <em>Topkapi</em>, as well as <em>Never on Sunday</em>, a popular picture that served as a valentine to his talented wife, actress Melina Mercouri, he was a force. He also directed <em>10:30 P.M.</em> <em>Summer, </em>again featuring wife Mercouri with the added wow factor of Romy Schneider<em>. </em>Very good<em>. </em></p> <p>Dassin was a seminal figure who deserves the respect of a Hawkes, a Ford, a Hitchcock or a Kazan. And speaking of Kazan…Dassin suffered the vile witch-hunt of HUAC, and was blacklisted from Hollywood after director Edward Dmytryk named him as a communist. Dassin would fashion his aforementioned greatest work — <em>Night and the City</em>, in London, and later the influential <em>Rififi</em>, made in France. He died in 2008, but his work lives on. </p> </blockquote>http://tumblr.the-frame.com/post/23616888692http://tumblr.the-frame.com/post/23616888692Wed, 23 May 2012 10:46:26 -0700PhotoJules DassinRomy SchneiderMelina MercouriFilm<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m476v0a4Fm1qz575so1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Bible humor.
