If I can only pick one, I will have to go with "Bob Le Flambeur" (1955) which was the first Melville I saw (and loved) and for its influence on the upcoming French New Wave and on the "caper" film where a mastermind puts together a team.
If I could choose three - a holy trinity, say - I would have to list them as:
Bob Le Flambeur (1955)
L’Armée Des Ombres (1969)
Le Samourai (1967)
But then, I am also very fond of:
Les Enfants Terribles (1950)
Léon Morin, Prêtre (1961)
Le Doulos (1962)
Le Circle Rouge (1970)

Out of ones I've seen,Le Doulos takes the top spot,thanks to the mix of Film Noir grit (esp the ending) and JPM's refined stylisation.  |
