Neo-Realism meets Film Noir as two tough guys execute a broad daylight payroll heist on the streets of Milan. But returning to France after holing up in Italy for nearly a decade, one of them realizes there’s a life beyond the milieu. Bridging '50s masterworks like Rififi with Melville’s pared-down thrillers of the ’60s, Classe Tous Risques, virtually unseen in this country, is a penetrating study of the underworld yegg at the end of his rope, with the first teaming of two of the French cinema’s greatest icons, Lino Ventura and Jean-Paul Belmondo.
