On Wednesday, November 4th, 2026, please join us for a screening of Rififi, one of the greatest heist movies of its time. It is a French film adaptation of August Le Breton’s novel, directed by the American born Jules Dassin in 1955.
Rififi stars Jean Servais, Carl Möhner, Robert Manuel, and Dassin as the group of “criminal masterminds” who join forces for one final over the top scheme.
Rififi was filmed during winter in Paris and used real locations rather than studio sets, and was based on an actual 1899 burglary in Marseille. The movie earned Dassin the best director prize at the Cannes Film Festival, and has proven wildly influential on the decades of heist thrillers that have come in its wake.
