In this episode of Subgenre, host Josh Dasal and his guest host, screenwriter and Hollywood studio guy Steve Baumgartner, reach all the way back to the dawn of the French New Wave as they react to the 1956 French-language noir classic, Bob le flambeur, directed by esteemed filmmaker Jean-Pierre Melville, and starring film veteran Roger Duchesne and ingenue Isabelle Corey in a movie about down and outs dreaming big in the rough Paris district of Pigalle. Topics of discussion include what makes a great crime film, the French New Wave, and whether a heist film truly needs a heist in order to work for an audience.
Guest host: Steve Baumgartner, screenwriter and studio exec
