Rififi (1955) is a masterful heist film from the blacklisted noir master director Jules Dassin and is available in a nice print on DVD from those masterful folks at The Criterion Collection.

Sway

Point Blank
Did you ever wake up to find
A day that broke up your mind
Destroyed your notion of circular time

It's just that demon life has got you in its sway
It's just that demon life has got you in its sway

Ain't flinging tears out on the dusty ground
For all my friends out on the burial ground
Can't stand the feeling getting so brought down

It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway

There must be ways to find out
Love is the way they say is really strutting out

One day I woke up to find
Right in the bed next to mine
Someone that broke me up with a corner of her smile

It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway

Wingo Girls

Michelle Johnson
Back in the 1980s, some Life magazine photographers were using New York Post Wingo games as gray cards/color checkers to help out the guys in the darkroom with portrait contrast and balance.
