Overview

The Asphalt Jungle is a brilliantly conceived and executed anatomy of a crime -- or, as director John Huston and scripter Ben Maddow put it, "a left-handed form of human endeavor." Recently paroled master criminal Erwin "Doc" Riedenschneider Sam Jaffe, with funding from crooked attorney Emmerich Louis Calhern, gathers several crooks together in Cincinnati for a Big Caper. Among those involved are Dix Sterling Hayden, an impoverished hood who sees the upcoming jewel heist as a means to finance his dream of owning a horse farm. Hunch-backed cafe owner James Whitmore is hired on to be the driver for the heist; professional safecracker Louis Ciavelli Anthony Caruso assembles the tools of his trade; and a bookie Marc Lawrence

Overview

The Asphalt Jungle is a brilliantly conceived and executed anatomy of a crime -- or, as director John Huston and scripter Ben Maddow put it, "a left-handed form of human endeavor." Recently paroled master criminal Erwin "Doc" Riedenschneider Sam Jaffe, with funding from crooked attorney Emmerich Louis Calhern, gathers several crooks together in Cincinnati for a Big Caper. Among those involved are Dix Sterling Hayden, an impoverished hood who sees the upcoming jewel heist as a means to finance his dream of owning a horse farm. Hunch-backed cafe owner James Whitmore is hired on to be the driver for the heist; professional safecracker Louis Ciavelli Anthony Caruso assembles the tools of his trade; and a bookie Marc Lawrence acts as Emmerich's go-between. The robbery is pulled off successfully, but an alert night watchman shoots Ciavelli. Corrupt cop Barry Kelley, angry that his "patsy" Lawrence didn't let him in on the caper, beats the bookie into confessing and fingering the other criminals involved. From this point on, the meticulously planned crime falls apart with the inevitability of a Greek tragedy. Way down on the cast list is Marilyn Monroe in her star-making bit as Emmerich's sexy "niece"; whenever The Asphalt Jungle would be reissued, Monroe would figure prominently in the print ads as one of the stars. The Asphalt Jungle was based on a novel by the prolific W.R. Burnett, who also wrote Little Caesar and Saint Johnson the fictionalized life story of Wyatt Earp.

Special Features

Closed Caption; Commentary with film noir experts on all titles, including director Robert Wise and Martin Scorsese on The Set-Up and co-star James Whitmore on The Asphalt Jungle; Plus more DVD extras

Editorial Reviews

Barnes & Noble
The wonderful Film Noir Collection brings to DVD five classics of the genre in superb editions, each graced with poster-worthy, period-flavored cover art. Among the most distinctive and clearly defined cinematic styles, film noir tales are built around characters who are desperate to live the American Dream yet doomed to failure. The cinematography in these black-and-white dramas makes the most of shadows and contrasts, a technique that underscores the tensions among the characters. The films here include: Murder, My Sweet (1944), featuring Dick Powell as Philip Marlowe, adapted from Raymond Chandler's novel Farewell, My Lovely, with a DVD commentary by film noir expert Alain Silver; The Set-Up (1944), starring Robert Ryan as a down-on-his luck fighter and boasting a commentary by directors Robert Wise and Martin Scorsese; Out of the Past (1947), the source for 1984's Against All Odds, featuring Robert Mitchum, Jane Greer, and Kirk Douglas, with a commentary track by film noir expert Jim Ursini; the surprisingly dark Gun Crazy (1949), a Bonnie and Clyde forerunner offering Peggy Cummins and John Dall as a couple on a crime spree, served up with commentary by film noir expert Glenn Erickson; and finally The Asphalt Jungle (1950), a noir masterpiece from director John Huston about an ill-fated jewel heist, with costar James Whitmore joining in the commentary by USC cinema history professor Drew Casper.
