Caught a little French film in the wee hours.
(15) Pickpocket (1959): A short-ish film (76 minutes), but not unusual for the day. It's the story of Michel, a pickpocket with no real desire beyond getting better at his tradecraft. His friend Jacques wishes more for him, and the girl, Jeanne, eventually falls for him, mostly because he's the only person left in her life. Not a lot happens in the film beyond a lot of pickpocketing and some cops on Michel's trail, but I liked it all the same.
