The Hot Rock is an enjoyable caper film with engaging performances by both Robert Redford and George Segal. Twilight Time have an immaculate transfer for the release.
House of Bamboo remains one of the best films from the Twilight Time label and from director Samuel Fuller. A beautifully shot noir in CinemaScope.
