The highly influential 1967 French hitman thriller returns to the big screen restored in stunning 4k using the original camera negative.
In a career-defining performance, Alain Delon plays Jef Costello, a contract killer with samurai instincts. After carrying out a flawlessly planned hit, Jef finds himself caught between a persistent police investigator and a ruthless employer, and not even his armour of fedora and trench coat can protect him.
An elegantly stylized masterpiece of cool by maverick director Jean-Pierre Melville, Le samouraï is a razor-sharp cocktail of 1940s American gangster cinema and 1960s French pop culture—with a liberal dose of Japanese lone-warrior mythology.
Jean-Pierre Melville’s film style infiltrated the work of directors like Jim Jarmusch (“Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai”), David Fincher (“The Killer”), and Nicloas Winding Refin (“Drive”).

The theatre is accessible from there and we have several spots where we’re able to accommodate a wheelchair. Unfortunately, our washrooms are each down a set of two narrow steps so are inaccessible to wheelchairs.
