We’ve gone from a man-on-the-run crime drama made in 1979 Japan, to another only made in 1960 Italy and France.  Claude Sautet’s Classe Tous Risques offers us a classic crime film full of desperate men, daring robberies, breathless car chases, the pathos of children living on the margins, and - because it’s a 1960 french crime movie - Jean-Paul Belmondo swaggering about with a wry grin.  What a treat!

If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be watching Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger’s A Canterbury Tale (1944).
