Caper Film heist as a narrative strategy in movies

The heist as a narrative strategy in movies means that characters have to be created in a certain way. Most of the characters in such films take the role of villains, who plot to achieve an agreed goal. The characters who take the role of a villain formulate a plan such as a bank robbery. The villain expects to execute the plan and escape. The villains are headed by the “ideal man” who leads the group. Other characters that comprise the villain group must all have special qualities that make their plot seem achievable (Telotte, 1996). One character may be a computer genius who can tap into surveillance and security system. Another character may be the mole that leaks security information from the intelligence service.
