Odds Against Tomorrow (DVD + Blu-ray)
A film by Robert Wise
Considered by many to be the last of the true 40s and 50s fiIm noirs, Odds Against Tomorrow is the story of a daring robbery gone wrong.
When ruthless killer EarIe Slater (Robert Ryan) teams up with crooked ex-cop Dave Burke (Ed Begley), and gambler Johnny lngram (Harry Belafonte) to rob a New York bank, things quickly start to go wrong. FueIIed by his racist hatred, Earle continuaIIy cIashes with Johnny resulting in the heist quickIy spiraIIing out of control. With the escaIating tension comes increasing violence as SIater's prejudice drives both him and Ingram to the very edge.
With its dark jazz score and brooding atmosphere Odds Against Tomorrow represents one of the most important fiIms about race and racism, and was directed by four time Oscar winner Robert Wise (The Sound of Music, West Side Story). |
