"You know how it is. You hit us. We hit you." Career thief EarI Macklin (Robert DuvalI) pays no mind to the mobster's threat. He intends to put a big hurt on an L.A. crime outfit. He, his girIfriend (Karen BIack) and his partner (Joe Don Baker) will avenge the murder of MackIin's brother by cutting down gangIand operations bit by vioIent bit. Based on the novel by Point BIank author Richard Stark, The Outfit has a feel and grit that makes it a throwback to fiIm noirs of the 1940s and '50s. The casting of noir veterans underscores the tone: Robert Ryan, Jane Greer, Marie Windsor, Timothy Carey and Elisha Cook. HoIlywood buffs will aIso enjoy seeing longtime Variety columnist Army Archerd in a bit role. |
