The Thomas Crown Affair

What's goin' on here?

Sit down.

Work an hour, do an errand...

drive a car.

Is it dangerous?

It shouldn't be. If anyone shoots, you're on your own.

Quit, run, do what you want.

Money. What's in it for me?

Fifty thousand. Maybe more.

But 50, anyhow...

in monthly installments, so no quick spending.

- How do I know I'll get- - You don't.

In a hurry? Gonna worry?

Quit. Get out. Now.

- In or out? - I'm in.

Good. Go celebrate.

- Buy a car. - I don't-

You do now.

Station wagon, a Ford station wagon.

The big one, the one with the wood on the side.

Thanks.

And no trips. Just your selling.

It may be months, but, Erwin...

you come when I call.

No questions. What you don't know can't hurt you.

You or me...

Erwin boy.

Bye-bye.

- Ty, is the check certified? - I think it's all in order.

Tommy, you just sign there on the top line.

I'll take your acknowledgment.

- Yes, that seems to be in order. - The Mercantile account.

Well, I guess we bought ourselves a property.

A Tommy Crown property.

It's always been very good to me.

You know the first thing I'm gonna do? Goose up all the rents.

Aren't you gonna wish us luck, Mr. Crown?

You overpaid.

Mr. Crown wishes you good luck.

Carol, have legal simplify these mutual accounts, huh?

- I can't even read it myself. - Yes, sir.

Sandy, you and Basil handle the Goddard account.

He's got a bee in it for me. Oh, cancel the insurance.

- Take my name off that building. - See you, Tommy.

Mr. Crown, we're up 3.7%

on the principal accounts of all five portfolios.

That's plus all the trading gains.

That's not bad, since the first of May.

Very good, Walter.

Oh, Walter, why don't you take a shot at this mutual account?

Yes, sir.

Mr. Crown, it's Geneva again. They've repeated the offer.

They're down a full half point on that block of French francs.

- If you want to take- - We'll wait.

Three more days.

At the tone. the time will be...

Show me your feet. Keep your hands on that book.

Now just stand there and turn the pages.

In a minute you're gonna walk past me, in front of me,

Where's the elevator? We're gonna miss our coffee.

Get your hand back on that book! Keep turnin' those pages.

Don't move.

Everybody over by the wall.

That could've been your head!

In the elevator, sweetheart, with the rest of them.

Stay just the way you are.

Don't move. And keep your head down!

Move.

Let's keep it quiet now.

Folks, let's keep it quiet.

Folks, keep it quiet.

We'll ask you a few questions, take your name and address, and you can go home.

- Marvin, state police call in yet? - Not that I know of.

Then you call them. And let me know when the Bureau checks in.

And, Marvin, we're lookin' for suitcases, cartons, anything that'll hold money.

- Bill, check the airport and trains. - Right, Lieutenant.

Marcie, get me the Turnpike Authority.

Calm down, Eddy. I'll get 'em for you.

Did you have a good afternoon, sir?

Fine. Just fine.

- Any calls? - They're by your phone, sir.

I won't be needing you tonight, John.

Thank you, sir.

Get it on tape- all the details, every little thing.

Right.

Give 'em time to think. Don't make 'em hurry.

Phil, better play waiter.

Go out there and tell them that we're gonna buy them dinner, two bucks a head.

Send for it now. Keep it simple. Paper plates, lots of napkins.

Marcie, give Phil a pencil and pad.

Now, Mr. Wexler, what about the numbers on those bills?

No numbers. Just small bills.

- Did he have anything to say to you? - He said to get in the elevator.

He put a gun in my face. You know, I was really scared.

Chicken salad sandwich. On white.

- Yeah. What do you want? - I wanna get outta here.
