Directed by John Huston, The Asphalt Jungle (1950) is a superb Film Noir that has gained added attention for containing a great early performance by Marilyn Monroe. Although not given billing in the film, the producers soon realized the value of Marilyn Monroe's sex appeal, and included her likeness in subsequent advertising efforts. The story concerns a jewel heist, and both the plans of aftermath of it. Great performances run throughout, including Marilyn Monroe, Sterling Hayden, Louis Calhern, Jean Hagen, James Whitmore and Sam Jaffe.
