...with any romance in his/her soul, would present a loved one with a stove? Better a filmy negligee or even a velour shirt (both went well this winter). Better yet, a Fendi sable coat (Bergdorf's catalogue sold three at $18,500 apiece), a $500 cashmere robe or any ornament made of gold, the invaluable metal that fetched some $220 an ounce on the London market last week. Tiny gold pendants in the shape of oil barrels went for $850 and solid gold nuggets for $950. Tiffany's diamond-studded gold watch was a bargain. Its price...
...slow pace. His portrayal of the thief with the heart of gold never falters. When he accidentally discovers that the Brink's fortress is no more than a poorly protected warehouse of money waiting to be hit, he rushes out and buys his wife a 100 per cent muskrat coat to celebrate his upcoming...

Peter Falk, coming on like Groucho Marx doing an impersonation of Humphrey Bogart, makes the mangy most of his role as the gang's leader. A conniver with a heart of gold, he uses his loot to buy his wife (Gena Rowlands) a showy "100% muskrat" coat. As the gang's detonation expert, Warren Gates has a hell of a fine time: throughout the film he launches into deliriously obsessive speeches about imagined World War II combat adventures. The other principals, Peter Boyle, Paul Sorvino and Allen Goorwitz (the actor formerly known as Allen Gar field), all have...
