Storyline

Following the theft of a highly-secured piece of artwork, an agent convinces her insurance agency employers to allow her to wriggle into the company of an aging but active master thief. Connery's burglar takes her on suspiciously and demands rigorous training before their first job together--stealing a highly-valued mask from a chichi party. Their deepening attraction and distrust could tear apart their partnership but the promise of a bigger prize (some eight billion odd dollars) by Zeta-Jones keeps the game interesting. Only, who's playing with whom? Written by Lordship <lordship@juno.com>

Did You Know?

Trivia

The film came in $2 million below its budget. Co-producer Rhonda Tollefson credits this to Producer Sean Connery's thrifty Scottish ways. Connery drove his own car instead of hiring a driver and flew on commercial planes instead of using private ones so that all the money would show up onscreen. See more »

Goofs

Continuity: After a brief car chase Mac pulls up to the curb and we see the car is heavily damaged on all sides; the damage is much more extensive than this chase caused. On the DVD there is a deleted scene of a much longer car chase that explains this discrepancy. See more »

Quotes

Mac: Has there ever been anyone you couldn't manipulate, beguile or seduce?
Gin: No.
