Editorial Product Review: :Director Jules Dassin (Night and the City, The Naked City) fashioned this breezy and intricate 1964 thriller with a sly comic bent, and it enjoyed international popularity and became an influence for other high-toned European caper films. Peter Ustinov (Spartacus, Death on the Nile) won an Academy Award for his performance as a hapless driver, clueless to the plans of his cohorts, two jewel thieves who plan to steal a priceless dagger from the Topkapi museum in Istanbul, ...

It's a Crawford vehicle all the way (her next-to-last ...
Editorial Product Review: :'Ladies and gentlemen, the motion picture you are about to see is called The Naked City.' With a helicopter shot slowly closing in on Manhattan, producer Mark Hellinger's staccato narration introduces the film ('It was not photographed in a studio . . .') and continues throughout like a documentary commentator with a literary flair. It's a conceit that serves this police story nicely, giving the patina of realism to this deglamorized look at the work of the homicide ...
