“How to Steal a Million” has everything that you love
about art, romance, comedy, and heist films.
The creative story is unlike any that I’ve ever experienced, placing the
main character in a position where she needs to steal her own painting out of
an art museum. While the story has
romance, it is driven by the strong will of the leading lady and Audrey Hepburn
is the perfect candidate for the role.
I’m pretty sure that she is infallible, bringing charm and style to
every role that she has ever played. Her
charisma is matched by Peter O’Toole, who pairs well with the suave
sophistication of this burglar. Their
chemistry may be more of a masterpiece than the artwork displayed throughout
the film. Once you add in the witty
dialogue and the comedy provided by Hugh Griffith and François-Alexandre
Galepides (a.k.a. Moustache), this film is a well-rounded crowd-pleaser. “How to Steal a Million” is a classic and
should be on every movie-lover’s list.
