The Thomas Crown Affair : Litterbug

Faye was very beautiful in this movie, but what a litterbug! She ripped up Crown's letter, in the graveyard, and threw it in the air; when there was a garbage can right next to her!

It's more symbolic as done the way it is . . .

Your political correctness prevented you from enjoying the scene. Young people today have no idea as to what society was like in 1968.

She couldn't find a paper recycling bin.

This is a highly emotional moment for her. She has lost the love of her life - but made herself a fortune in commission.

And didn't he say something about her keeping the Rolls?

I thought the same thing!

And little known movie fact, that letter wasn't written on paper, but rather a non-biodegradable plastic/poly blend material (much like an early disposable diaper) and those pieces are still there today!

Must have been at least a few years. Kojak's lollipop wrappers take that same route and he's a NYC lieutenant.

The City couldn't really do anything about it until the local residents complained.

THEN you would've had a movie!

Litterbug? She was also destroying evidence involved in yet another huge robbery! A crime in itself!

I like both films, but I definitely prefer the '68 version. Some of the film making techniques were intriguing and innovative. The music was perfectly suited to the scenes, and I much prefer the '68 ending to the remake. Not every film should end happily. The "headhunter" tried cleverly to play the mark and was played very brutally herself. By the way, I might be mistaken, but I think that the kid who delivered the telegram at the end of the first film was re-cast as the man who gives Renee Russo's character the suitcase on the dock at the end of the remake. I was sorry to see, as well, that Paul Burke died back in '09. He was a fine actor who never received the credit he deserved.

That's why they needed the Crying Indian Commercial to come out less than 2-years later; There was no one to show Faye Dunaway the errors of her way
