À quoi s’attendre
Jules Dassin takes the crime film into streets, apartments, bridges, and workplaces, letting documentary texture complicate the narrator’s claim to show a complete city. The procedural became a model for screen police stories.
Comment aborder le film
Follow the investigation one interview at a time. The voice-over announces a city of millions; the pleasure lies in the specific faces, rooms, and movements that resist becoming mere background.

The narrator promises one city, but every location opens another. I like the friction between the official case moving towards closure and New York continuing beyond the edges of the evidence.
