Review of Thieves (1996) by Leonard Klady for Variety — 09 Nov 2009
An abrupt change of pace from Wild Reeds, director Andre Techine's Cannes-competing Thieves (Les Voleurs) elevates a seemingly routine police drama into a Rashomon-style exploration of family and amorous ties.
Handsomely and meticulously made, the film nonetheless appeals mostly to a rarefied audience.
