LaserDisc Movie Review:
The Killers uses Ernest Hemingway's short story as a springboard for a complex film noir. Two mysterious men (William Conrad and Charles McGraw) muscle their way into a small town and kill an aging boxer (Burt Lancaster, making his screen debut), who offers no resistance and seems to be welcoming his death. An insurance investigator (Edmond O'Brien) is hired to locate the beneficiary to Lancaster's policy, and in the course of his investigation reopens a long-dormant robbery case. In a series of flashbacks, O'Brien makes the connection between Lancaster and the robbery and tracks down the "brains" behind the operation. He also comes in contact with Lancaster's former girlfriend (Ava Gardner), whose duplicity played a big part in Lancaster's demise -- and his indifferent reaction to it. Siodmak's hard-edged, moody direction of the Oscar-nominated screenplay by Anthony Veiller, makes The Killers one of the definitive films noirs, including what is considered to be one of the greatest opening sequences in movie history.

LaserDisc Movie Review:
Recently divorced and drinking heavily, armored car guard Steve Thompson (Burt Lancaster) meets his ex-wife Anna (Yvonne De Carlo), with whom he is still emotionally and physically obsessed, in a nightclub. Anna is planning on marrying Slim Dundee (Dan Duryea), a gambler with mob connections. Anna and Steve resume their relationship and when caught by Slim, desperate to save their lives, Steve tells Slim that they are planning a robbery of a armored car. Slim agrees to help them and Anna convinces Steve to actually go through with the robbery to get them the money to run away together and begin a new life. Things do not go as planned leading to a violent conclusion. Expertly directed by Robert Siodmak and with good performances by all the cast, particularly Burt Landcaster as the obsessed, doomed Steve, Criss Cross with its smoky, claustrophobic aura is one of the most tragic and compelling of film noir.
