THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR (Theatrical Release USA 1968)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.2|5.0 Starsìììì

The Thomas Crown Affair—intriguing heist movie—moves quickly through the heist and then focuses on how insurance investigators work to solve the crime with the introduction of one special female investigator. Steve McQueen serves as an excellent choice for the lead man. This is one of Norman Jewison’s (Fiddler on the Roof) first directing efforts and shows early on his talent as a director. The movie is worth its watch.
