ABOUT THE FILM: 

When ex-fighter “The Swede” (Burt Lancaster, in his feature film debut) is assassinated without resistance, an insurance agent must uncoil his past and understand the apathy he displayed towards life. Ava Gardner stars as the beautiful gangster hanger-on Kitty Collins, Swede’s off-and-on confidant. Based on Ernest Hemingway’s 1927 short story, THE KILLERS garnered four Academy Award nominations and a 1964 remake by Don Siegel.
