How to Steal a Million (1966)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060522/
This film was a delight. Now, don’t bother watching it if you don’t find films of the 60s endearing and sweet and fun – you will not enjoy this film. However, for those like me who love the films of this era, HOW TO STEAL A MILLION was a fun vacation from the hustle and bustle of some of todays cinematic efforts.
A classic robbery film, MILLION doesn’t have blood, swearing or ladies running around in their panties or less to serve the masses the naked bits they crave. This film features two of the most charming stars of the time (or any time!) – Audrey Hepburn and Peter O’Toole – going on an adventure that had me giggling and cooing all along the way to it’s deliciously syrup sweet ending.
No special effects. No high tech gadgets. Just the two charmers conceiving and executing a plot to steal a statue back from a museum. The story was fun with a wide array of colorful characters and a pace that was great considering some of the films of the 60s ran like watching paint dry.
The quick, clever and cute dialog is fantastic and the demure Audrey proves that you don’t have to be naked to be sexy, strong funny and charming.
