The Asphalt Jungle (1950) set the standard for every heist movie that followed, blending John Huston’s hard-edged realism with a crew of painfully human thieves. Sterling Hayden leads a cast of broken dreamers, while a young Marilyn Monroe provides a glimpse of the star she was about to become. It’s noir stripped to the essentials: precise, unsentimental, and unforgettable. | Midnight Movie Snack
