La Belle Cérébrale - 1968 - 6/10
AKA - The Beautiful Intellectual

Martine, model for a painter is on her break.
While he babbles on the phone, she listens, eats a pear, lets her mind wander.
Nice juxtaposition of the banal conversation with her vivid imagination.
I used TurboScribe to capture the phone talk, then tidied up.
Not ideal, but serviceable.

Blueprint For Robbery - 1961 - 6/10

Fine caper flick, based on the Brink’s Robbery.
Financial backers contact one to assemble and lead a crew.
Observe the premises, plan meticulously, rehearse, do the job.
An inverted police procedural, where we watch the bad guys execute the heist.
Then they have to wait three and a half years.
Which proves so hard.
