In Norman Jewison’s 1968 crime caper, Steve McQueen stars as a rich and charming businessman—the last person to be suspected of being a bank-robbing mastermind—while Faye Dunaway portrays the insurance investigator assigned to the case. As the smart and seductive investigator proceeds in her search for the criminal, her sights become set on the millionaire thrill-seeker.
