Thiefy yet wrinkly
Good film about a heist, sort of like oceans 13 with grandpa's. It's a good story with plenty of strong points.
There's a fairly well known cast boasting such names as Michael Caine, Jim Broadbent, Ray Winstone, and Michael Gambon.
Lots of backstabbing going on as well as these fellas prove at any age, there's no honour amongst thieves.
Worth a watch

A British Classic
A classic British film from the old days. A good cool, fun heist film with one of the best chase scenes on film as the police go after the 3 mini coopers all around Turin. I thought I'd just add I like the new Italian Job as well, but it's not a straight re-make, just similar ideas and also worth checking out!

More Intrigue in the Art World
This book opens with Laurel Beacham in Florida with Jack Hawkes. Despite what they have just gone through in the first book in this series, Laurel still doesn’t trust Jack and is only reluctantly working with him. He is keeping too many secrets from her while demanding she share everything she know. They are continuing to work together, however, in order to stop a major art heist, and Florida is their most promising lead. A kidnapping and a dead body prove that they are on the right track. Will they learn more about the plans in order to stop the heist? Or will they be stopped permanently?

There is a strong on-going story line in this series involving an upcoming art heist, so I definitely recommend you read these books in order. In fact, I wish I had read this one closer to the first. The author does do a good job of filling in the blanks on what has happened before, which helped me remember the events of the first book. The story starts strong and keeps going from twist to turn as the pages fly by, resolving enough to make this book feel like it has resolved while still leaving plenty for Laurel and Jack to face in the next book. The duo make for intriguing leads, and the characters we meet along the way hold our interest as well.
