The scenes of planning terrorist operations in Odd Man Out , The Devil 's Own , and Jordan 's The Crying Game ( 1992 ) are almost identical to the scenes in gangster films like The Killing ( 1956 ) and The Asphalt Jungle ( 1950 ) , where the hoodlums carefully put together their capers .
There are many who could contend that this comparison neglects the fact that the circumstances driving gangsters and terrorists are significantly different .
