Thomas Crown (
Steve McQueen) is a self-made Boston millionaire who masterminds a bank heist in hopes of leaving it all behind. Tired of being part of the Establishment, he has hopes of pulling off the caper and flying to Rio. Erwin Weaver (
Jack Weston) leads the cast of crooks who never actually meet Crown but manage to pull off the robbery without a hitch. Crown deposits 3 million in a Swiss bank account, pays off the crooks, and waits for the insurance company to repay the bank for the loss. Eddy Malone (
Paul Burke) is the savvy detective who helps insurance investigator Vicky Anderson (
Faye Dunaway) find the mastermind behind the heist.
Thomas Crown Affair became one of the first films to employ many split-screen images throughout its running time, as devised by editor
Hal Ashby.
Michel Legrand's score was nominated for an Academy Award, and the song
The Windmills Of Your Mind, written by
Legrand with
Alan and
Marilyn Bergman took home the coveted Oscar.

A Glittery Classic Crime Drama.
Norman Jewison directs this original 1968 crime caper with Steve McQueen starring in the title role of a supercool tycoon, who plans the perfect bank robbery, and Faye Dunaway as a beautiful insurance investigator, who is coldly determined to nail the gentleman thief. Listen carefully for Noel Harrison singing the Oscar-winning song, The Windmills of Your Mind. Also starring Paul Burke, Jack Weston, Biff McGuire, Yaphet Kotto, Peg Shirley, and Richard Bull. Remade in 1999.
