Criterion Collection - Killing/bd - Blu-ray

Stanley Kubrick's account of an ambitious racetrack robbery is one of Hollywood's tautest, twistiest noirs. Aided by a radically time-shuffling narrative, razor-sharp dialogue from pulp novelist Jim Thompson, and a phenomenal cast of character actors, including Sterling Hayden (DR. STRANGELOVE), Coleen Gray (RED RIVER), Timothy Carey (PATHS OF GLORY), and Elisha Cook Jr.. (THE MALTESE FALCON), THE KILLING is both a jaunty thriller and a cold-blooded punch to the gut. And with it's precise tracking shots and gratifying sense of irony, it's Kubrick to the core.
