A proposito di questo titolo
In this episode we look at Bottle Rocket (1996) & The Mastermind (2025), and try to define the ‘Post-Heist’ Film. In a literal sense: films that mainly take place after a heist. From a genre perspective: films that deconstruct the typical conventions of a heist movie, with characters less charismatically suave as they are idle, adrift in the socio-economic and political landscape they exist in. They are characters who don’t steal for necessity, they steal for meaning.
