Admittedly, my admiration for Jennifer Beals inclines me toward finding this film a discovery worth watching and no waste of time. It has a delicious hommage.to Rififi. Beals plays a preternatural criminal genius resembling Michelle Dockery in Good Behavior, and no less well. In the early years, it seems that the powers that be had no idea what to do with Beals. It delighted me to see her get enough to work with at last, in The L Word. It brought Joel 2:25 to mind.
