Heist
It isn't love that makes the world go round.
Directed by David Mamet
Produced by Stolen Film Productions, Franchise Pictures
A taut, cynical heist thriller about an aging criminal forced into one last job while navigating betrayal, blackmail, and the moral compromises of a life built on theft.
Joe Moore has a job he loves. He's a thief. His job goes sour when he gets caught on security camera tape. His fence, Bergman, reneges on the money he's owed, and his wife may be betraying him with the fence's young lieutenant. Moore and his partner, Bobby Blane, and their utility man, Pinky Pincus, find themselves broke, betrayed, and blackmailed. Moore is forced to commit his crew to do one last big job.
