If A Fish Called Wanda hit the spot, these will too

Both are Charles Crichton's work, and they rhyme
The difference: Made in the 1950s, in a different era of the craft

The same mix in both: wit, then play
The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair


The same two preoccupations: robbery, and heist
The difference: Leans harder into drama than A Fish Called Wanda does

Crime with a pulse of wit, in both cases

One thread runs through both: heist


Two things both keep coming back to: infidelity and lawyer

Crime built on grit, twice over
