Synopsis
How to Steal a Million (1966) is a caper comedy you can watch online on iFILM. In Paris, a single small statue has to vanish from a guarded museum before the experts realize it was never the real thing.
Nicole is the daughter of a charming forger who has spent his life passing off his own paintings and sculptures as old masters. When his Cellini "Venus" goes on public display and is booked for authenticity testing, exposure is only days away. So she enlists Simon, a man she takes for a cat burglar, to lift the fake before anyone can examine it. Audrey Hepburn and Peter O'Toole play the flirtation and the break-in with a featherlight touch, joined by Hugh Griffith and Eli Wallach.
Director William Wyler turns the heist itself into a late-night courtship, all wit and stolen glances rather than menace. It's a treat for anyone who loves elegant vintage comedy, a clever robbery and Hepburn in peak Givenchy. Stream How to Steal a Million (1966) online on iFILM.
