Review of The Italian Job (1969) by Kieran O — 30 Jan 2009
Classic heist film with Michael Caine leading a plot to steal $4 million of gold bullion from an armoured convoy in Turin. Hugely popular and rightly so, it's hard to believe there is anyone who hasn't seen the film from its many showings on TV.
Funny, exciting and with one of the best endings ever, it's also a reminder of when crime films made in this country didn't seem to consist of cockney gangster films.
