John Huston's brilliant crime drama '''''The Asphalt Jungle''''' contains the recipe for a meticulously planned robbery, but the cast of criminal characters features one too many bad apples. [[Sam Jaffe]], as the twisted mastermind, uses cash from corrupt attorney Emmerich ([[Louis Calhern]]) to assemble a group of skilled thugs to pull off a jewel heist. All goes as planned — until an alert night watchman and a corrupt cop enter the picture.
