Cheesy but still love it. Toni Erdmann - Sandra Huller is my favorite actor currently. #LastFourWatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd #filmsky

Art heist is fun, but real treat is screenplay that gives equal footing & power to its never-better stars! Hot! #filmsky 📽

neutral · AI labelView post →Rewatch: The Thomas Crown Affair (1968). With another remake in the works, I thought it'd be fun to go back to the Norman Jewison original, and it was. The film sets a high bar for itself in the opening heist sequence, with its groovy soundtrack and split screen action. 1/5

positive · AI labelView post →A friend recommended the Thomas Crown Affair and I have never seen it and somehow I missed a John McTiernan film? This thing is pure cinema so far.

negative · AI labelView post →Watching THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR again and this movie is a masterwork. There is literally no way to improve it
positive · AI labelView post →Better than the celebrated remake. I've always really liked The Thomas Crown Affair. It is a light-hearted, almost frivolous film, that is wonderfully edited together. Hal Ashby and Norman Jewison worked this one with great skill. Even if it is decidedly old-fashioned now, the film still looks cool.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Star Wars side story Solo is actually kind of a space heist. I enjoyed it and think the hate is overblown. The Thomas Crown Affair and After the Sunset are two Pierce Brosnan movies that both involve some fun heisting as well. Just remembered, Guy Ritchie loves a good heist flick. Lots of his movies qualify. I think Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels counts, Snatch, The Gentlemen, and even sort of The Man from UNCLE.
neutral · AI labelView post →I've seen both versions of the Thomas Crown Affair and I'm on board for this. It's a classic movie because it's a classic story. It can be retold a million different ways.
neutral · AI labelView post →Quote post with a song you can’t hear without thinking of a movie it was in. Sinnerman - Nina Simone \ The Thomas Crown Affair
neutral · AI labelView post →[off topic?] I watched a Steve McQueen movie a few weeks ago [The Thomas Crown Affair.] There's a scene where Steve and Faye Dunaway are lounging in a steamroom. When the movie came out, McQueen was considered one of the most virile men in Hollywood. Compared to today's standards, he looked kinda scrawny.
neutral · AI labelView post →So they're remaking The Thomas Crown Affair, and while I think MBJ is a fine pick for the lead role, its first trailer feels very... Bond-style action movie and not a romantic heist film. His love interest doesn't show up until 3/4s of the way in? I'm hoping future trailers show that dynamic more.

As someone in cultural heritage, I have so many thoughts about this entertaining film and how it depicts art crime 🕵🏻♀️. #HATM
positive · AI labelView post →I very rarely give 5 stars to a movie, so The Prestige is something of a rarity. Angels and Demons is rubbish but hilarious, The Thomas Crown Affair works due to its stars and The Witches of Eastwick basically has three women fawning over Jack Nicholson. Certainly a mixed up bunch! #lastfourwatched
neutral · AI labelView post →In contrast to the below, THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR is an ideal movie to remake, even remake repeatedly. It has a good sturdy concept that different writers / directors / movie star pairings can put their own stamp on.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Thomas Crown Affair is a great heist film. It rewards a second viewing, but doesn’t linger on the details of the heist. Instead it pays attention to the characters around it and their motivations.* (Also the best Brosnan Bond movie.) *Only Ocean’s Eleven nails the “characters & heist” combo.
positive · AI labelView post →Share a movie or TV shoe character with excellent fashion sense! One of my favorites, Faye Dunaway in The Thomas Crown Affair.
neutral · AI labelView post →Every time I watch the '99 The Thomas Crown Affair (a good movie! I like it!) something else makes me giggle. This time it's the women's hair, which I presume is big because it's full of secrets.
positive · AI labelView post →Listening to The Thomas Crown Affair score makes me wanna rewatch the film for the 50-11th time.
positive · AI labelView post →Entrapment and The Thomas Crown Affair. Both came out in 1999. Both have James Bond actors playing art thieves being pursued by female insurance investigators.
neutral · AI labelView post →Depending on mood: - The Thomas Crown Affair (1999 Piers Brosnan / Rene Russo version) - Rogue One - The Wishing Stairs (Korean horror movie; I love it but it's also a lullabye movie that I put on and curl up in front of when I can't sleep at 3am. I'm weird.)

positive · AI labelView post →The Thomas Crown Affair is a very silly movie but the soundtrack is just ridiculous. Like yes we have the hottest jazz rendition of Nina Simone's Sinnerman but let's not get *too* excited; we also added a bunch of solo Sting's tepid and boring fuck lullabies
