Our Criterion Channel review of the week belongs to Thief, Michael Mann's 1981 crime drama classic. The film stars James Caan as Frank, a lucrative thief who succeeds by keeping his circle small and his reach aligned with his grasp. As soon as he gets greedy--in his personal life as well as his professional--things take a turn for the worse.
We discuss the movie's beautiful nightscapes, sinister uncle of a villain, Caan's amazing yet simple performance, disagree over the ending, and much more.
