The Italian Job (1969)

Recently released from prison, Charlie Croker (Michael Caine) plans to steal four million dollars from under the noses of the Italian mafia.

With the backing of Mr Bridger (Noel Coward), who runs a gangland empire from behind bars, Croker embarks on a daring heist to seize the gold, involving three Minis, an enormous traffic jam in Turin and probably the most famous car chase in movie history.
