The Thomas Crown Affair

I may be showing my age here, but this has been one of my favourite movies ever since it was released. This had a number of 'new' techniques such as multi image of a wide screen, which added to the impact at the movie. The plot is good, complete with twists and turns, but you can't stop 'batting for McQueen' By the way the plot is different from the later Pierce Brosnan film - so you can buy both! I think the only fly in the ointment is that the film quality is not as good as others. On some of the shots - particularly the early multi image shot there is just too much dust and dirt. It seeems it wasnt cleaned to make the .M4V copy.... It would be nicer to enjoy a remastered copy.

After a summer of bad films in the cinema seeing this reminded me how good film making can be, it's got real style and understated humor, if you don't watch this you'll probably regret it.

Forget the remake! - This film has McQueen, a memorable soundtrack and is superbly filmed. This film has style!

If you have seen or heard of the remake don't let this turn you off this film. Steve McQueen makes this film what it is, what he brings to the role no one else could, this film will show you why they call him the king of cool. You won't be disapointed.

Steve Mcqeen at his coolest and top of his career.
