SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION

If you loved Thieves Like Us, try these.

They Live by Night poster 01

Movie / 1948 / Drama / Crime

They Live by Night

Why this pick

Like Altman’s film, this is a melancholy lovers-on-the-run crime story, shaped less by outlaw thrills than by tenderness, fatalism, and the sense that ordinary life remains just out of reach.

Badlands poster 02

Movie / 1973 / Action / Crime / Drama

Badlands

Why this pick

Its period Americana, detached lyrical voice, and deceptively calm treatment of young fugitives closely echo the wistful, observational mood around Altman’s doomed couple.

The Sugarland Express poster 03

Movie / 1974 / Crime / Drama

The Sugarland Express

Why this pick

A 1970s fugitive road film with a humane, offbeat view of criminals and bystanders; it shares the mix of romantic desperation, regional texture, and quietly ironic social observation.

The Honeymoon Killers poster 04

Movie / 1970 / Crime / Drama / Thriller

The Honeymoon Killers

Why this pick

For the unvarnished, low-key intimacy beneath the criminal premise: this follows a destructive couple with austere realism and an unsettling refusal to glamorize their bond.

Bonnie and Clyde poster 05

Movie / 1967 / Action / Crime / Drama

Bonnie and Clyde

Why this pick

Another Depression-era outlaw romance whose charm and violence are filtered through changing American attitudes, though its brisker, more stylized energy makes a useful counterpoint to Altman’s languor.
