Roof entry with hammers? Doesn't sound too riveting.

  I think the idea is smashing. :-) I took a cinema class at USC (one of my non-engineering credits) and it deconstructed the 'heist movie' in such a way that took a lot of the fun out of them. When the heist location plays the antagonist you get a sort of MI-5 movie, when the heist location is a simple smash and grab it plays the part of connecting the protagonist to the the antagonist. In this case it sounds like there was a long drawn out investigation so it would be the latter, with the story being the ups and downs of the investigating team tracking the painting post theft.

    Where does To Catch a Thief fit into the heist movie ontology? That's basically what I was thinking of when I wrote the post.
