"Crime is one of the most traditional and fruitful film genres; it's embedded into the very essence of cinematic history and language, from Fritz Lang's "M" to "Uncut Gems." It's something so essential that any overview of "The Best Of" movies from any decade will doubtlessly feature countless crime pictures, the 2010s being no exception.
But there can only be some many entries in any given list, so inevitably, several great movies end up not making the cut for one reason or another, falling short of reaching a wider audience that might appreciate them. This list is an effort to showcase some of these lesser seen or talked about movies, in the hopes that they can find their proper place in the vast and rich crime canon."
