Jean-Pierre Melville's masterpiece about the French resistance went unreleased in the United States for thirty-seven years, before its triumphant debut release in 2006. Atmospheric and gripping, Army Of Shadows is Melville's most personal film, featuring Lino Ventura, Paul Meurisse, Jean-Pierre Cassel, and the incomparable Simone Signoret as intrepid underground fighters who must grapple with their own brand of honor in their fight against evil.
