A crack team of jewel thieves, led by Azad (Jean-Paul Belmondo, Breathless), steals a valuable emerald collection in Athens. While the heist itself is successful, getting out of Athens proves problematic. A corrupt police detective (Omar Sharif, Doctor Zhivago) is on the chase, with plans of his own for the stolen jewels. Also starring Dyan Cannon (Heaven Can Wait), THE BURGLARS is a tense, compelling thriller featuring a legendary car chase coordinated by Remy Julienne, and a score by Ennio Morricone.
