Been watching more You Tube than movies lately, but I need to switch back.

Lupin on Netflix. There are three seasons, I'm watching season 3. It's excellent. It's a thrillers. A crime story about a genius art thief. It's set in Paris.

Sharper - Apple TV

Movie about swindlers. You may well think you can see the person(s) who's being conned. You can't blink or you will miss the different cons (long con).

@qualitygal - This is usually not my genre, but three older ones I have seen and would see over and over are

The Usual Suspects

L.A. Confidential

and our favorite The Final Countdown (with Kirk Douglas and Martin Sheen - very different!)

@beach-mom I have yet seen a crime mystery story as well done as this one to date! Shocking/surprising ending.

Kevin Spacy won many many awards for his performance as "Best Supporting" actor. Oscar being one of them!

@beach-mom I agree that The Final Countdown is a unique film. But just thinking about it launches the 1986 song of the same name by Europe in my head, and it stays there for weeks. It's said that the movie was the inspiration for the song.

I have a thriller for you especially if you like Hitchcock.

It is called "Our House", a 4-part British mini series. I believe it is on Amazon Prime. I discovered it a couple of months ago when my local PBS station aired it 11:00 pm on 4 consecutive Sundays. I believe it originally aired earlier this year.

If you have ever watched the Hallmark movie "A Crown for Xmas" with Danica McKellar, the actor who plays the King is in this movie. All around great acting and keeps you guessing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
