Not a lot o people know that!

Here's one that could very easily have slipped under the radar. Michael Caine stars in a 60's London Heist movie. No no no, I'm not getting confused with some of his greatest moments of cinema such as The Italian Job or Gambit (A true classic by the way!) in which Caine starred alongside Shirley MacLaine. This one is called Flawless, for reasons which the synopsis will give away.

It stars Michael Caine, and Demi Moore. Sadly, although Caine has a big part, he's not the principle character, Moore holds that egg. Its the story of an American working in London at the London Diamond Company (aha! the truth outs itself with regards to the title!) who is constantly overlooked for promotions and generally treated badly because she's a woman. Can you tell where this is heading? Caine plays a soon to retire Janitor in the building, who has a plan. He nabs Moore's disgruntled ear, and convinces her to pull of a fine heist by stealing diamonds from her employer. Sounds simple enough! I do love my heist movies, and since this one seems nothing of the Oceans ilk, I'm genuinely quite excited about it! Due for release in 2007, with no fixed date as of yet. watch this space!
