About this event
How many times does it take to steal the same diamond? Our Hallucinations series is getting heisty as we present the 1972 classic The Hot Rock! Robert Redford stars as John Dortmunder, a professional thief who assembles a motley crew to steal a priceless diamond from the Brooklyn Museum…only for the heist to go spectacularly, hilariously wrong. Based on Donald E. Westlake’s novel and scripted by William Goldman, this caper is classic ’70s New York fun. In peak ’70s heartthrob mode, Robert Redford is the real hot rock here, putting yet another effortlessly cool performance onto his resume. Also starring George Segal, Ron Leibman, Paul Sand, Moses Gunn, and Zero Mostel, it’s wildly entertaining caper from director Peter Yates (Bullitt) with a screenplay by the legendary William Goldman. What else could you possibly want!?
