David Mamet – MovieLog https://frowningbear.com/movies What me peepers have reckoned upon Wed, 02 Nov 2022 06:47:46 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.1 Heist (2001) https://frowningbear.com/movies/?p=3271 Sat, 22 Oct 2022 12:46:56 +0000 https://frowningbear.com/movies/?p=3271 David Mamet takes this story of thieves along many twists and turns, some of which work and some of which don’t. Gene Hackman plays the brilliant leader of a gang (Delroy Lindo, Ricky Jay & Rebecca Pigeon as Hackman’s youngish wife), which pulls off complex heists for a despicable fence (Danny DeVito). After stiffing the gang on a jewelry robbery, DeVito forces the gang to go after a Swiss gold shipment and to use his nephew (Sam Rockwell) in the crime. No one trusts anyone and every step is shaded with the unexpected.
