Your favorite heist movie
This was on the internet today.
You know the drill: A handful of professionals. An impregnable fortress. An elaborate plan that calls for a veritable concert of individual efforts performed with split-second timing. A fortune at the end of the mission. Oh, yes, and the getaway, so often the loose thread in an otherwise well-crafted plan. Whats your all time favorite. Kelly's Heros. |

The Dirty Dozen is a classic...
 The Great Raid was a good flick that is a true story that came out last summer about a raid on a Japanese POW camp to rescue a several hundred prisoners.

Dirty Dozen was a good flick. With all those actors at a young age. Then they all went on to do there own thing. Great exposure for all of them.
Construction of the faux chateau proved *too* good. The script called for it to be blown up, but the construction was so solid that 70 tons of explosives would have been needed to achieve the effect! Instead, a section was rebuilt from cork and plastic. |

I'd go with Kelly's Heros too.
On a side note, about a month and a half ago, while watching the tube with the mrs. I said 'I'm surprized they haven't made a remake of 'It Takes A Thief' (they've done everything else now). This week I see previews for Vegas and the situation calls for the worlds master thief, who does James Cahn call but Robert Wagner! Sometimes I think my house is bugged by the networks  OT (sorry PJ) t

Greatest Heist Flicks of all time has to be with Steve McQueen and they have made remakes of both, but not as good as originals:
 "The Thomas Crown Affair" "The Getaway" Also an old film noir (black and white) starring Sterling Hayden: "The Killing" If you haven't seen these, then you haven't seen a Heist film! |

They had that German U-boat and took on the Queen Mary. Did you know that Rod Serling was one of the writers for that movie.
