The World Documentary Repository: F is for F for Fake (1973). Orson Welles’s documentary is an essay film dissecting art forgery, authorship, and truth. Blending documentary, tricks, and rapid montage, Welles explores legendary fakers like Elmyr de Hory to prove that cinema itself is an illusion.

Monty Python comedian, Michael Palin is dressed as a short-haired blonde middle-aged woman wearing a red frilly dress. She’s just asked a question and she looks very smug.

Fresh out of the pen, Johnny Clay (Sterling Hayden) assembles a rogues' gallery of career criminals to rob a racetrack counting room, in "The Killing" (1956). Too bad that cohort George Peatty (Elisha Cook Jr.) is the weak link that threatens to make the caper crumble. #filmnoir

Action Film Dictionary: G is for Guard. A character in the heist scenario whose chief narrative function is to prevent the theft of valuable objects located in a secured space, often acting as an obstacle to the thief, as seen in High Sierra (1941).
