 NEW YORK (AP) - "Army of Shadows" won the New York Film Critics Circle award for best foreign film last year and enraptured critics, many of whom put it on their top-10 lists. The New Yorker's Anthony Lane wrote: "For the first, and maybe only, time this year, you are in the hands of a master."
The response was unusual because the film was made in 1969.
Directed by Jean-Pierre Melville, "Army of Shadows" got its U.S. theatrical release only last year — its unearthing the work of Rialto Pictures, a company that has distributed old films for 10 years.
