Upon first sight, I thought the movie would have some French elements in it or it would be a sophisticated James Bond-style movie with heavy french influences. However, I was pleasantly surprised about the storyline that was not french-related at all. I felt that Alicia’s description of the story was very thorough and I did not even need to see the movie because she accurately and comprehensively described the plot of the story. I liked that the cops took the matter of the heist into their own hands when they thought that the couple’s wealth was suspicious and actually pursued justice. This, however, would not exist today. There would be too many rules and regulation that would prevent the cops from making the make decisions that they made in the story. Relating to New York city, this movie shows the lives of police officers in the 1960s and their daily experiences on the job. I also liked that this movie realistically showed the transportation system in New York City since many movies show the glamorous side of transportation in New York CIty and I can’t help but like that it showed the subway as I see it today.
