Classic Crime Movies

Question 1:

The dark comedy Fargo (1996) is named after a city in North Dakota. However, most of the action takes place in what other U.S. state?

Minnesota
  • The film is noted for the actors' distinctive Minnesota accents, as well its depiction of "Minnesota nice"—the reputation of Minnesotans as being unusually courteous, reserved, and mild-mannered compared to most other Americans.


Question 2:

What 1967 film starred Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway as a pair of real-life outlaws?

Bonnie and Clyde
  • Bonnie and Clyde is a landmark movie, one of the first films of the New Hollywood era. Its breaking of cinematic taboos prompted other filmmakers to be more open in presenting sex and violence in their films.


Question 3:

This 1948 thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock is notable for its long unbroken takes and seamless editing that make the movie seem like it was shot in real time.

Rope
  • The film was inspired by the real-life murder of 14-year-old Bobby Franks in 1924 by University of Chicago students Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb. The pair wanted to commit the perfect crime to prove their intellectual superiority.


Question 4:

Although typically known for "nice guy" roles, this actor was cast against type in Double Indemnity (1944), playing the conniving insurance salesman Walter Neff.

Fred MacMurray
  • The movie was adapted from a James M. Cain novella, which in turn was based on a real-life murder. In 1927, Ruth Snyder colluded with an insurance agent to secretly obtain a policy on her husband before having him murdered. She would later be executed for the crime.


Question 5:

A car bomb explodes at the U.S.—Mexico border during the opening sequence of this 1958 film directed by Orson Welles and starring Charlton Heston.

Touch of Evil
  • The three-minute long scene that opens the movie is among the most famous tracking shots in film history. A technical tour-de-force, the ticking bomb creates a sense of uneasiness and suspense that sets the movie's tone.
