This 1979 film directed by Michael Crichton stars Sean Connery as a safe cracksman attempting to make off with a load of gold with his accomplice Agar, played by Donald Sutherland. The soundtrack was only available on vinyl for a long time, until 2004 when a reissued CD score was released by Varese Sarabande. This is pretty expensive, but I managed to come across an old copy of the record so I picked it up. The music by Jerry Goldsmith is a classic rousing adventure score. If you like what you hear, I would suggest trying to find a copy of the CD which has additional tracks.
Tracks:
1. Main Title
2. No Respectable Gentleman
3. Double Wax job
4. Casing the Station
5. The Gold Arrives
6. Kiddie Caper

Similarly, in his screenplay Crichton used another real-life character from Chesney's book, that of a housebreaker called Williams, that is the reason of the success of the movie, excellent performance had Sean Connery
