A career thief and compulsive gambler comes out of his drug-addicted funk in order to make the score of a lifetime. But first, he must put together a crew capable enough to help him pull off the complicated heist, along with the proper tools required for such a security surrounded target. The mark: a bunch of priceless pieces of art. The obstacle: a tipped off police detective following his every move. The payoff: a comfortable lifestyle, along with the knowledge that he is still a good thief.

Here's a movie that is also known as the "The McPherson Tape" but was originally planned to be called "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner", until they found out that that title had already been taken.
A Thanksgiving family get-together gets interrupted by big-eyed visitors from, well... I'm sure most of you know by now where this is going.
Upon deeper reflection of this film's holiday theme, I think that the story here might be an allegory of what happened to the Native Americans after they had the Pilgrims (i.e. White man) over for a turkey dinner. The McPherson family is supposed to represent the Natives and the aliens, the white man.
But I'm not sure.
I may have just made that up to sound allegorically astute for this post.

The Mighty Celestial added 1 item to 20 From 76: My Favorite Films Of 1976 list
Throughout the seventies, Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor were two comedians whose individuals stars were rising at skyrocketing speed. Then someone came along and decided to pair Wilder's ivory Brook-farce antics with Pryor's ebony-edged street-savvy. And as a result, 1976 saw the first of four Wilder/Pryor movie collaborations.
This Murder on the Mid-Western Express missive is usually considered by many as the best of the Gene & Richard comedy vehicles, and for me, it definitely rolls as my favorite of the G'n'R laff-along rides.
