6. Thief (1981)
Director Michael Mann, probably best known for his work on the 1980’s police series Miami Vice and the 1995 bank robbery film Heat made his name much earlier with the now beloved James Caan vehicle Thief.
Frank, an ex-con who lost his twenties to a stint in prison emerges with a mind set on making up for lost time as a used car salesman by day and thief by night, chasing an American dream all his own for a house, a wife, and child. A product of inhuman institutions, from the impersonal rearing of an orphanage to the kill or be killed world of prison, Frank is an antisocial man in a world reduced to the barest rules of survival and animal competition. He is a thief because there is nothing else left for him – he has no personality outside work and there is no work fit for him but taking.
