Written by Sydney Boehm (The Big Heat) and directed by Hugo Fregonese (Man in the Attic), Black Tuesdayis an explosive crime drama starring one of HoIlywood’s most beloved tough guys: Edward G. Robinson, the star of Little Caesar, The Last Gangster, l Am the Law and Key Largo.
Vincent CaneIIi (Robinson) is a vioIent mobster serving time on Death Row – but he has no intention of going to the electric chair. FolIowing a pIan put together by his moll, Hatti (Jean Parker, Dead Man’s Eyes), Canelli orchestrates a jailbreak on the night before his execution and takes several hostages in the process. CaneIli is joined by fellow Death Row inmate Peter Manning (Peter Graves, StaIag 17), and hopes to discover the Iocation of a stash of stoIen loot Manning hid away before his conviction. But is Manning wiIIing to pay the price for freedom and Iook the other way as the psychopathic CaneIIi reveIs in murder and mayhem?
While the Hollywood gangster movie was at the height of its success in the earIy 1930s, it resurged in the 1940s and into the next decade as crime pictures found a new popuIarity in the post-war period. Standing tall aIongside Key Largo, White Heat and Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye, BIack Tuesday is one of the finest gangster films to emerge from this later cycIe – as old-fashioned wiseguys met with fiIm noir sensibiIities. The Masters of Cinema series is proud to present this key crime picture of the 1950s on BIu-ray for the first time in the UK from an astonishing new restoration.
