Hi everyone,


I'm looking for movies about pickpockets (similar to Samuel Fuller's PICKUP ON SOUTH STREET, Robert Bresson's LE PICKPOCKET, and Jia Zhangke's XIAO WU).


I'll be considering these films in conjunction with a thread of Hong Kong movies on the same topic, as well as COLD EYES (a Korean remake of a Hong Kong movie that quotes Fuller), but would be grateful for titles and suggestions to other movies about pickpockets within world film.


Feel free to reply off off-list.


Thanks in advance for any leads!

Karen Fang
