Kansas City Confidential (1952) Movie Summary

  • CRIME
  • NR
  • 1952
  • FULL HD

An absolute gem from film noir’s golden era. Joe Rolfe (John Payne) is an ex-con on the road to rehabilitation when he’s framed for a million dollar robbery staged by Tim Foster (Preston S. Foster), a vengeful former cop. By the time he’s finally released for lack of evidence, it’s already too late—his face has been plastered on the front page of the newspaper, he’s been fired from his job, and he’s still healing his wounds from the beating he took down at the police station. Embittered and determined, he sets out to find the real criminals to render justice himself. A trail of clues leads him south to Mexico, and straight into the path of an inconvenient beauty (Coleen Gray) with ties to the ringleader, and some of ugliest bad guys you’d never want to meet (Lee Van Cleef, Neville Brand, Jack Elam).

Français
Quatre gangsters braquent un fourgon blindé transportant plus d'un million de dollars. Joe Rolfe, un chauffeur-livreur, est accusé d'être impliqué dans ce braquage et est interrogé avec brutalité par la police locale. Relâché faute de preuves, Rolfe remonte la piste des criminels jusqu'au Mexique afin de se disculper définitivement. Mais un ancien policier est également impliqué dans le braquage.

Nederlands
In Kansas City plant de cynische en corrupte ex-politieagent Timothy Foster een uitstekend doordachte overval op de gepantserde auto van de bank. Hij trekt daarvoor drie van de meest wrede en onverbiddelijke criminelen die hij kan vinden aan, te weten Boyd Kane, Rolf Romano en Pete Harris.

Español
Cuatro ladrones atracan un camión blindado huyendo con más de un millón de dólares en efectivo. Joe Rolfe (Payne), un conductor de camiones de reparto de flores que está pasando por una mala racha, es acusado de estar involucrado y es interrogado duramente por la policía local. Liberado por falta de pruebas, Joe, siguiendo la pista a un balneario mexicano, decide buscar a los culpables tanto para limpiar su nombre y para vengarse.

Deutsch
Der ehemalige Sträfling Joe wird beschuldigt, einen raffinierten Bankraub in Kansas City durchgeführt zu haben. Die wahren Schuldigen sind jedoch drei Gangster sowie ein Ex-Polizist. Um einer Verurteilung zu entgehen und nicht wieder ins Gefängnis zu müssen, macht sich Joe selbst auf die Suche nach den Bankräubern.

ελληνικά
Ένας πρώην κατάδικος μπλέκεται άθελά του σε μια ληστεία 1.000.000 δολαρίων και η αστυνομία τον θεωρεί συνένοχο. Για να καθαρίσει το όνομά του, ταξιδεύει μέχρι το Μεξικό αναζητώντας τα μέλη της συμμορίας, αν και έχει ελάχιστα στοιχεία στη διάθεσή του.

עִבְרִית
שלושה מחליטים לשדוד בנק בקנזס סיטי, אחד מהם הוא שוטר שעבר לצדו השני של החוק. אלא שהשוטר המדובר לא מסתפק בשוד אלא מעוניין להשאיר את כל הכסף בכיסו, ולאחר הבגידה בחבריו, להאשים גורם חיצוני ותמים. כך נלכד ברשת נהג המשאית ג'ו רולף, שמוצא עצמו נרדף לא רק על ידי המשטרה אלא גם על ידי השודדים עצמם. השעון מתקתק. פילם נואר קלאסי ביותר של הבמאי פיל קארלסון (Tight Spot) עם ג'ון פיין (נס ברחוב 34) בתפקיד האדם הנרדף ולי ואן קליפ (הטוב הרע והמכוער).

Pусский
Бывший заключенный Джо Рольф обвинен в вооруженном ограблении банка. Бандиты использовали цветочный фургон, принадлежавший Джо. За отсутствием у него похищенных денег, а также веских доказательств, Джо отпускают на волю. Гонимый жаждой мести, он собирается узнать, кто и зачем подставил его. Вскоре он узнает, что следы грабителей ведут в Мексику. Постепенно в своем расследовании Джо сталкивается как с беспощадными бандитами, так и продажными полицейскими…

Magyar
A rendőrségtől elbocsájtott kapitány pandúrból rablóvá lesz és hozzáfog, hogy megvalósítsa a tökéletes bűntényt. Megzsarol három körözött nehézfiút, hogy szegődjenek társául és az egymillió dolláros bankrablást ráverné a börtönviselt, próbaidőn lévő balekra. Pechére azonban rosszul választ: Joe Rolfe nem olyan fából van faragva, hogy más helyett vigye el a balhét és konok elszántsággal ered a valódi tettesek nyomába. A film Quentin Tarantino bevallása szerint az egyik "kultusz" forrásmű volt a Kutyaszorítóban megírásakor.

Português
Foster projeta um exuberante esquema para assaltar um carro forte de Kansas City. Ele recruta três dos mais cruéis e impiedosos criminosos para empreender o assalto, chantageando-os com incriminantes provas de outros "trabalhos". Foster obriga cada criminoso a usar máscaras, a fim de esconderem suas identidades um dos outros e prevenir o velho perigo de traição. O assalto é realizado sem problema, até que a polícia captura Joe Rolfe que não participou do assalto. Com o tempo, Rolfe é solto, mas fica inconformado. Finalmente, e por coincidência, encontra um dos criminosos no México, quase o mata de pancada, e então assume sua identidade. Aí, as coisas realmente se complicam.

svenska
Den före detta polischefen Tim planerar ett stort värdetransportrån som han ger tre gangstrar i uppdrag att utföra. Alla fyra döljer sina identiteter för varandra bakom masker, så att ingen ska kunna ange någon annan ifall rånet skulle gå snett. Rånet utförs dock helt enligt planen och polisen anhåller snart den tidigare straffade, men denna gång oskyldige, chauffören Joe för brottet. Efter en tid i häkte blir Joe till sist frikänd och han är nu fast besluten att finna de riktiga rånarna.

The SilencersAction & Adventure1966

Take one shot of danger, two splashes of action and a twist of comedy and add a generous portion of screen legend Dean Martin to the mix and you've got The Silencers, a stylishly sexy adventure in the tradition of James Bond. It's up to secret agent Matt Helm (Martin) to save the day when megalomaniac Victor Bruno (What Ever Happened To Baby Jane?) and his dastardly organization, Big O, plot to sabotage America's atomic missile system. From deep inside Big O's subterranean hideout to a perilous mountainside car chase to groovy designer bedrooms filled with booby traps, Helm braves blistering showers of bullets, knives and laser beams to make the world a safe place again. Helping his cause is a bevy of beauties including Stella Stevens (The Poseidon Adventure) and double agent Daliah Lavi (Casino Royale). In addition to its arsenal of high-tech gadgets and outrageous costumes, The Silencers features an amazing opening sequence starring Cyd Charisse (Singin' in the Rain) and a cocktail-era soundtrack by Elmer Bernstein with vocals by Martin, Charisse and Vikki Carr.
