French Film For People Who Don't Like Subtitles


How To Steal A Million (1966)
How to Steal a Million is a 1966 heist comedy film, directed by William Wyler and starring Peter O'TooleAudrey Hepburn, and Hugh Griffith. It is set and filmed in France, though the characters speak entirely in English.
O'Toole appears as Simon Dermott, caught by Audrey Hepburn sneaking through her house clutching a forged painting. Hepburn plays Nicole Bonnet, the daughter of genius art fraud Charles Bonnet (Griffith). The central theme of the movie is the recovery from a Parisian museum of a fakeCellini committed by Bonnet's grandfather, before its discovery and exposure as such, and is enlivened by the romantic angle between the characters played by O'Toole and Hepburn.
