Michael Caine plans an audacious overseas robbery in this cheeky 1960s crime caper. Taking on the Italian authorities and the Mafia with nothing more than a rag-tag crew of likeable villains, a fleet of Mini Coopers and a lot of nerve and pluck, ex-con Caine and his gang set about pulling off a gold-bullion through the heaving traffic of Turin. The little cars are undoubtedly the stars of the show, and with its funky soundtrack, breezy confidence and memorable cliff-hanger ending this remains one of Britain’s best-loved films.

Fascinating facts
