Comment
Michael Caine is left the instructions on how to carry out a robbery in Turin, by creating a massive traffic jam and then escaping with gold in the back of three Mini Coopers. This is still one of the best heist films, with a great car chase of the three mini's through Turin and the classic cliff hanger finish.
