Leave your thoughts about Elevator to the Gallows.
| Electric SheepJason WoodStriking to look at, with each frame resembling an intricately designed photograph ... |
| Washington PostStephen HunterWhat turns it fabulous, indeed mythical, is the presence of another entity: Paris at night in the '50s, to the tune of Miles Davis's score as realized in the dappled hues of Henri Decae's gorgeous poetic cinematography. |
| NewsdayJan StuartIf you've never seen this 1957 film-noir gem, you should be seduced by the cool nocturnal cinematography of Henri Decae and the languid improvisational sounds of Miles Davis. |
| Denver PostMichael BoothThe plot crackles with energy and misdirection, while the black-and-white film sharpens angles and amplifies the shadows lurking in every hallway. |
| Village VoiceAaron HillisThe film's alchemic blend of Bressonian rigor, Hitchcockian suspense, and overall proto-Nouvelle Vague cool more than compensates for its straightforward plotting ... |
| Film4Jon FortgangLouis Malle was just 25 when he made this moody piece of Gallic pulp fiction about a girl, a gun and a broken lift. |
| SPLICEDWireRob BlackwelderIn backwards-thinking terms, Malle was the Tarantino of his day, giving French cinema a creative, influential shot in the arm that opened new horizons in directorial thinking. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonLike a black-and-white Hitchcockian tour of hell. |
| Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionSteve MurrayThe movie's most compelling element of all is Moreau, wandering the nighttime streets trying to find her lover. It's as if she's blown from one cafe to the next on a blended wind of passion, dread and the lonely trumpet wail. |
| San Diego CityBeatGlenn Heath Jr.Malle spins new webs around typical noir conventions, giving darker implications of fate and comeuppance a fresh verve. |
