Join us for a lively virtual discussion with Professor Tas Salini, Instructor of Film History and Film Appreciation at Broward College. We're discussing two movies for the August discussion. 

About the film

Synopsis: 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 armor of fedora and trench coat can protect him.
