Although I enjoy reading your posts Tinear - I disagree with most of your views and your recent post is no different.
C'mon - I thought Charles Durning was an angry vengeful force to contend with . I also found Robert Shaw very menacing . A murderous time bomb waiting to go off. For me ,one of my all-time favorite R.S. roles . Not "cutesy" at all. But it seems you find "massive calves and thighs" more disturbing then good old-fashioned Hollywood bad guys!I've listed some of favorite heist films (off the top my head)...
"The Killing Of a Chinese Bookie"
"Thief"
"The Killing"
"Asphalt Jungle"
"The Hot Rock"
"The French Connection"
"The Taking Of Pelham One - Two - Three"
