	Thieves: Partners in Crime - Review and Commentary
		The strength of "Thieves" is in stars Stamos and George, who remind me of Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd from "Moonlighting." The writers should keep the stories simple; their heists are less important than Johnny and Rita's relationship.
		Thieves, also on ABC, is in the To Catch a Thief or Moonlighting mode, in which two reluctant partners fight each other in their journey through life, even as the sexual tension rises.
		The gimmick in Thieves is that Rita (Melissa George) craves action, while her male partner Johnny (John Stamos) hates guns and violence of all kinds.

	Amazon.com: DVD: Thieves' Highway - Criterion Collection (1949) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Thieves’ Highway is set in the world of "long-haul boys" who drive by night to bring their goods to the markets of America’s cities.
		Bezzerides wrote the novel (Thieves' Market) and the script for this one, as well as the earlier novel Long Haul, which was filmed as the George Raft/Humphrey Bogart vehicle `They Drive by Night.' Both, I guess, can be called proletariat crime thrillers.
		Thieves' Highway is one of these films that he left for coming generations to enjoy and ponder.

		Thieves are shady individuals devoted to a life of stealth and skullduggery.

	Chicago Reader Movie Review
		A pessimistic film, but very far from a cynical one, Thieves postulates a fatalistic world bound by family origins and intense romantic longings in which every character is trapped into becoming a thief of one kind or another, emotionally as well as existentially.
		Thieves has another sister and brother who seem similarly haunted, Juliette and Jimmy, but here Deneuve and Auteuil play strikingly different characters, a professor and a cop, uneasily bound together by their rivalry for the same woman.
		Thieves may be a dark and disturbing film, but it certainly isn't an inaccessible one.

	Urban Legends Reference Pages: Crime (VIN Car Thieves)
		The car thieves peer through the windshield of your car or truck, write down the VIN number from the label on the dash, go into the local dealership for that car brand and request a duplicate key for it from the VIN number.
		But this is antithetical to the way car thieves generally work — they're creatures of opportunity who steal cars as they find them, quickly and anonymously.
		They don't want to have to go around recording VINs, forging documents, calling attention to themselves and risking exposure by showing their faces at auto dealerships, waiting around for keys to be made, and hoping the cased cars are still where they found them when they finally return with their duplicate keys.

	Encyclopedia Obscura: Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves (NES)

But there were a lot of preliminary steps between thought and realization, and a good many of them took longer (a lot longer) than I’d hoped they would.
		They also decided to publish SANCTUARY and the new anthologies as full-size hardcovers, which raised the price but also got Thieves’ World® the library sales it had never gotten back in the 80s.
		In the meantime, once the novel was finished, I could start inviting a mix of Thieves’ World® veterans and new voices for the first of what I hope will be an open-ended series of new anthologies.

	Bicycle Thieves (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Bicycle Thieves is the best known and, according to most critics, the finest example of an important and influential movement in post-World War II world cinema: Italian neorealism.
		Using "truth" as a rallying cry for the cinema, Italian neorealists not only used many of the storytelling and film making techniques associated with earlier embodiments of realism, but were intent on showing the poverty, despair, and devastation in Italy wrought by war, fascism, and social injustice.
		Cesare Zavattini, De Sica's frequent collaborator and the author of the screenplay for Bicycle Thieves, identified the following principles as basic to the neorealist movement.
