Excellent comments. I read the same about the advice given to Huston by an older director. I seem to remember it was Von Sternberg who said that to him. The advice works well in Huston's best films, of which THE ASPHALT JUNGLE is one of the greatest

What was the tv series?

[@5MinuteFilmClub]

The film was adapted into a series in 1961. Only lasted 13 episodes and the pilot was subsequently re-edited into a theatrical release called ‘The Lawbreakers’
