Fittingly, The Mastermind receives its release in the wake of a headline-grabbing heist at the Louvre. The criminals responsible for that robbery employed methods that suggest they're not students of French heist movies. There was no ingenious plan to break in through the roof or via an adjoining building under cover of darkness; instead the thieves went to work with angle grinders in broad daylight. Kelly Reichardt's film is inspired by a similar 1972 incident in which thieves entered the Worcester Art Museum in Massachusetts during opening hours and walked out with four valuable paintings.

Director Edward Berger follows up his Vatican drama Conclave with another movie set within a small city with a distinctive personality. This time it's the Asian gambling mecca of Macau, a cross between the tacky glitz of Las Vegas and the exclusivity of Monte Carlo.
