I love Dassin, but I just wasn't crazy about this one. Lancaster is great and the choice of angles is superb as well.

Thieves' Highway
Very interesting Noir-esque film by Dassin. The film takes some unexpected twists and turns while still being very dark at times. The ending is especially surprising.

Worth seeing if you are a Noir buff

Awesome little heist film by the master Jules Dassin.

De Palma cribbed the Mission Impossible "Tom Cruise hanging from the ceiling" bit from here.
