censored version - By: Alexis' fan, 29 Jan 2007
I am totallly disappointed, I saw the film first on VHS a good few years back & some of the scenes(the hot scenes)were cut in this DVD. This is the same letdown version I saw on television...what's the story here? If I wanted a censored version I could have seen it on tele....terrible waste!
Thief of MY heart!! - By: Babooshka, 28 Aug 2006
I discovered Steven Bauer in this very film & was blown away by the role he played. He plays a theif of jewels stealing from the houses of San Francisco's richest residents. One day, after he takes numerous possessions from one house he discovers he has stolen the diary of a woman who is locked in a marriage in which she is wholly unsatisfied. She writes of her dreams of passion & adventure with her ideal man, who at this point is not her huband. Scott (Steven B) enters her life & becomes that man, indulging her in alll of her fantasies. Needless, to say, things go a bit pear-shaped as he becomes totallly obssessed with her yet she starts to back away, mostly due to the fact that he is such a closed book & won't disclose anything about his life. The ending is inevitable but despite what happens, you know that they will somehow always be a part of each others life...as long as they are alive that is. This reallly does make you reach in to the depths of your emotions to release your secret desires & fantasies..and the sadness & impossibility that they can sometimes bring.
Has its moments.... - By: , 07 Mar 2004
Thief of Hearts is a film of its time - i.e. a glossy-looking 1980s film with a fairly far-fetched plot. In some respects it hasn't worn well - the clothes & locations look almost kitschy now, & some of the acting is quite cardboard - but it has its moments of genuine suspense & eroticism. This was the film where I discovered Steven Bauer & it's a reminder of what a good actor (and darkly handsome fellow) he is - & it's also fun to see David Caruso long before NYPD Blue & CSI: Miami as Bauer's redhaired, somewhat psycho partner in crime. Not the best film ever, but good fun nonetheless....
