Also Known As: It Takes a Thief

Directed by: John Gilling

Synopsis: Billy (Jayne Mansfield) leads a gang of armed robbers who steal from banks, armoured cars, and the like.

Purr Blur: Near the start of the film, waiting in the getaway car, Billy tenses as a policeman on the beat approaches, but after pausing briefly he continues on his way. Just as Billy breathes a sigh of relief a black cat is catapulted onto the bonnet, startling her in a Spring Loaded Cat moment. Little wonder since the cat is accompanied by an intense dubbed screech and a particularly loud musical sting.

Final Mewsings: Cats are welcome to drop in anytime (but they can leave the loud accompanying soundtrack at home).
