About

You can stream Pickpocket (1959) on Criterion Channel with a subscription.

Michel takes up pickpocketing on a lark and is arrested soon after. His mother dies shortly after his release, and despite the objections of his only friend, Jacques, and his mother's neighbor Jeanne, Michel teams up with a couple of petty thieves in order to improve his craft. With a police inspector keeping an eye on him, Michel also tries to get a straight job, but the temptation to steal is hard to resist.

Shadowy Parisian alleys and the rhythmic, nervous twitch of practiced fingers create a sense of mounting isolation. This cold study of criminal compulsion finds its pulse in the quiet, mechanical precision of a man losing his humanity.
