1967: Point Blank

The plot about a man who wants his share of the money back from his partners in crime after escaping from Alcatraz has two feet planted firmly on "not a masterpiece" ground, and the film doesn't win the Sergej M. Eisenstein Award for Outstanding Achievements in Editing either. What makes this film worth a look is the lush late-60s interior decoration of the appartments most of the film is set in. I'm not being cynical here: The interior decoration is a marvel to behold. (6)
