A Man to Respect aka The Master Touch
1972-95min-Paramount-Orion Filmproduktion
d. Michele Lupo
Kirk Douglas is Master thief Steve Wallace just out of prison for a heist gone wrong. When he is approached by his previous employer for a million dollar job he flatly turns it down. He has a beautiful young wife to think about (Florinda Bolkan) who can't take it if he is sent away again. But old habits die hard, and with the aid of a wild young circus performer (Giuliano Gemma) he decides to make one last big score. To get away with it will take a master's touch.
+1 star for a car chase that would make Bullitt blush
+1 star for an outlandish security system and how to beat it
+1 star for a downbeat ending Mr. StreetLaw didn't see coming
Bottom line
3 stars
