Set in Mississippi during the 1930s Depression, Thieves Like Us is "wonderfully directed" (Blockbuster Entertainment Guide) by one of America's most revered filmmakers, Robert Altman (The Player). Adapted by Calder Willingham (Rambling Rose), Joan Tewkesbury (Nashville) and Altman from Edward Anderson's novel Thieves Like Us, the film is layer-deep with characterization that "gets better every time you look at it" (Leonard Maltin). Convicted murderer Bowie (Keith Carradine) is as tough as the come. So tough, in fact, he's made a daring prison escape and has gone on the lam with two buddies.
