Review of Mise à sac

"Mise A Sac" is one of the most original heist movie I've ever seen, adapted from a novel by Richard Stark. A commando takes peacefully control of a little town and robs everything, until ... No stars in the casting, just Michel Constantin, Daniel Ivernel and others, and that's enough to show a simple non violent global heist, "Mise A Sac" isn't supposed to be a blockbuster with Belmondo, Ventura, Gabin or Delon, the movie stays more realistic that way, with a documentary touch. And maybe this is why "Mise A Sac" is still invisible since too long time, not enough commercial and too "amateur"? I guess Alain Cavalier chose a realistic way of shooting a peaceful commando, and it doesn't seduce the actual distributors. I saw a restored print at the Cinematheque in Paris in December 2014, the theatre was complete. Maybe for the 50 years of the movie, it will be very soon get released. Alain cavalier would love it.
