Comentario
Deliciosa comedia picaresca en torno a un robo, con unos fantásticos Shirley MacLaine (El apartamento) y Michael Caine (El hombre que pudo reinar), con insuperable química entre ellos.
El trabajado guión narra cómo un sofisticado ladrón inglés y un escultor francés convencen a una mujer euroasiática, que trabaja en un cabaret, para que robe una estatua china de gran valor, en posesión de un millonario. El film obtuvo tres nominaciones al Oscar, aunque en categorías menores: dirección artística, vestuario y sonido. decine21

In the 1960s Hollywood combined the classic "caper" film with a healthy dose of romantic comedy. The result was a series of charming films such as CHARADE (1963) and HOW TO STEAL A MILLION (1966)--films that combined major stars, clever plots, witty scripts and which balanced suspense with comic and romantic complications.
Made in 1966 and released in 1967, GAMBIT was among the last of these films, and like all others in the genre it had a complex plot. Ahmad Shahbandar (Herbert Lom) is quite possibly the richest man in the world and a recluse to boot, a man who has never gotten over the death of his beautiful Eurasian wife some twenty years ago. Harry Dean (Michael Caine) devises a clever plan to gain access to his luxury apartment and rob him blind: he will use honky-tonk dancer Nicole Chang (Shirley MacLaine), who bears a striking resemblance to Shahbandar's long dead wife, to breach Shahbandar's defenses.
There's only one problem: it won't work. To tell exactly why it won't work is to betray the plot, which is extremely clever; suffice to say that Dean has made a number of incorrect assumptions about both the situation and the personalities involved. When the plot begins to twist, it does so in a truly unexpected way, taking both Dean and the audience completely by surprise.
