When you hear the opening bars of the score to this, you immediately think of "Lawrence of Arabia" - it has the hallmark of Maurice Jarre long before anyone has to blow any bloody doors off! Thereafter, it's a fun, classy little crime caper which sees Michael Caine recruit Shirley MacLaine to help fleece reclusive billionaire Herbert Lom of a priceless bust from his burglar-proof penthouse suite. The story is fast paced with plenty of gadgets and some quite witty dialogue; MacLaine is great as the not so daft foil to Caine's crooked faux-aristocrat, but Lom steals this as the not so gullible mark. Arnold Moss and John Abbott also turn in good, if brief, performances with the latter definitely getting the last

Twisty. Funny. Charming.

I love heist flicks, and this overlooked item delivered the things I like about the best heist flicks: suspense, trickery, a plot twist or two, and humor. This is a dead-on heist/comedy that surprised me with a couple of twists.

I've always been a Michael Caine fan, so naturally I'll tell you that his performance here is up to his high standards. I've never really been a Shirley MacClaine fan, though, so it was a surprise to me that she was so good in her role.

What kind of summary can I give without giving everything away? Harry Dean (Caine) has his sights on some loot, but needs a partner for his scheme. Nicole Chang (MacClaine) turns out to be everything he hoped for. But he didn't count on her being as clever or as alluring as she turns out to be.

8/10
