Style, acting, pacing, plot twists... this film has it all. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this film! The sound track, cinematography, and script were all terrific. Rene Russo was very effective, and Pierce Brosnan is much more believable as the billionaire thief Thomas Crown than in his current James Bond persona... The Thomas Crown Affair is probably Brosnan's best cinematic role to date. Another sequel would be terrific if the overall style could be duplicated.
