Dir. Jules Dassin, 1948, USA, 96 min.

"There are eight million stories in the naked city; this is one of them." Long before Hova sampled it, this pathbreaking, gritty crime drama was famous for being based on Weegee's lurid crime scene photography, for being shot on location all over New York City, and for its director and writer being blacklisted as communists and exiled to England and Mexico, respectively.
