(1966)

In the charming streets of Paris, art heists and witty con artists intertwine in “How to Steal a Million,” a dazzling caper that unfolds with a blend of humor, romance, and unforgettable twists. At the heart of the story is Nicole Bonnet, the brilliant daughter of a renowned forger, who is about to inherit a legacy that could either liberate her family or ruin them forever. When her father announces he plans to donate a priceless statue—a forged work of art that he has spent years creating—to a prestigious museum, Nicole is faced with an impossible dilemma: steal it back before the world discovers the truth.

Enter Simon, a charming and resourceful art thief with a penchant for mischief. He becomes Nicole’s unlikely accomplice when they realize that stealing the statue is far more complicated than they ever anticipated. With both of their reputations on the line, the two embark on a wild and electrifying adventure that requires them to navigate through high-society parties, secret vaults, and meticulous heist planning.

As their mission unfolds, Nicole and Simon discover not only the thrill of the con but also the intricacies of their own lives and desires. With each passing moment, the stakes rise, and so does their chemistry, drawing them closer to a chaotic but heartfelt relationship. However, they must outsmart a relentless detective who is always one step behind, and they will need to confront their own moral compasses as the heist brings unexpected consequences.

“How to Steal a Million” explores themes of identity, the cost of deception, and the blurry lines between right and wrong. With a vintage Parisian backdrop, the film seamlessly pairs beautiful cinematography with a playful score that complements the whimsical nature of its characters. An engaging ensemble cast enriches the story, from the witty best friend who provides comic relief to the wise father whose past decisions loom large over Nicole’s choices.
