Thief

"If you’re a fan of Heat, you owe it to yourself to watch its spiritual predecessor, Thief. Mann’s first theatrical release shows that his style and obsessions arrived fully formed. James Caan gives the best lead performance of his career. His safecracker is a raw nerve, focused and tenacious but also impulsive and grasping for a life that may not exist. The rest of cast is filled out by a perfectly shopworn Tuesday Weld and an army of local Chicago actors that help give the world its lived in feel. 4 out of 5 stars."

"Made in 1981, but imo possibly the epitome of a 1970's crime movies. Great music, camera work, lighting, and locations, all add to the atmosphere and grab your attention. Slow when needed, and just enough. Very, very, well crafted. Deserve to be better known."

"Fantastic soundtrack!!!"

"An exceptional crime thriller like they just don't make anymore, with a great cast creating characters you care about, lots of suspense, twists and turns, and a wild climax. "
