    What film features a safecracking scene lasting 30 minutes with no music or dialogue?

    Question #100382. Asked by darkpresence. (Oct 20 08 12:40 PM)


    gonnzo

    Du rififi chez les hommes or Rififi (shortened title).

    Dassin expanded the safe-cracking job, which is negligible in the book, into a 32-minute sequence that occupies a quarter of the running time and is played entirely without dialogue or music, intensifying the suspense.
