Movie Clip

Burglars, The (1971) -- (Movie Clip) It's Not A Ghost Ship At the port in Athens, their heist completed, the crew (Jean-Paul Belmondo as Arad, Robert Hossein as Ralph, Nicole Calfan as Helene and Renato Salvatori as Renzi) find their getaway boat missing, leading to inquiries and some cool shooting by cinematographer Claude Renoir (director Jean’s nephew) and director Henri Verneuil, in The Burglars 1971.
Burglars, The (1971) -- (Movie Clip) I'm Only For Sale At The News Stand A full 45 minutes into the feature, the first appearance of third-billed Dyan Cannon, with no part thus far in the plot, at an Athens hotel where master thief Arad (Jean-Paul Belmondo) is hiding out before his getaway boat sails, counseling his colleague (Nicole Carfan) on the phone from Corfu, in director Henri Verneuil’s The Burglars 1971.
