Does It Look Like I'm Here?

Does It Look Like I'm Here? contains the same new age, krautrock and kosmische styles that were a part of their previous albums. However, in the words of journalist Derek Miller, it is much more "sharp", concise and pop music-influenced than their previous works. In categorising the album's overall style, critic Rick Anderson of Allmusic labeled it a "slightly uneasy borderland between ambient music and avant-garde experimentation." He compared the album's soundscape to that of 1970s electronic pop and synthesized classical music, consisting of slightly cheesy-sounding keyboard arpeggiations," "waveform generators," and "sweet-and-sour analog synth sounds." He called some of the record's material, including "Candy Shoppe," a more enthusiastic

Sounds Like Sunset

The band are often filed under shoegazer and noise-pop music. The group's influences and inspiration range from the Beatles, Beach Boys, The Kinks, Velvet Underground and Love, through to more recent artists You Am I, Dinosaur Jr, Sebadoh, Spacemen3, Stereolab, Bailter Space, Flying Saucer Attack, Sonic Youth, The Cure, My Bloody Valentine and the Jesus and Mary Chain. The members' teenage/formative years share a collective love of punk & Death metal - which occasionally resurfaces, some might say at odds with the delicate melodic nature of the band's current output. Live shows are generally loud, densely layered and orchestrated guitar assaults.

Sanctus Real

Sanctus Real's main genre is typically labeled as Christian rock and alternative CCM. Their first three independent albums were described by Allmusic as power pop. Say It Loud was characterized by increased guitars and a powerful modern rock style. Their second release, Fight the Tide, was described as "melodic power rock" with similarities to Foo Fighters, Jimmy Eat World, Switchfoot, U2, and PFR. The band's music on The Face of Love blended the styles from their previous two albums, evolving into less of a heavier rock sound. With We Need Each Other, lead singer Matt Hammitt noted that he "just pushed the limits of what I can do vocally" during some songs, "whether it be on a soft, kind of rustic sounding vocal or whether it be this overdriven, rock high-range kind of vocal."

Sounds of the Animal Kingdom

Sounds of the Animal Kingdom is a studio album by grindcore band Brutal Truth. This album features a more varied style than previous albums, displaying the band's typical grindcore and death metal sound fused with elements of doom metal, stoner rock, crust punk, experimental rock, and elements of other genres. The album's closing track "Prey" is actually a 2-second snippet from "Average People" which repeats for 22 minutes, gradually becoming louder. On the vinyl release of the album, the song (instead of being stretched out to 22 minutes) is contained within a locked groove; which as a result makes the 2-second “song” loop infinitely until the listener lifts the record player’s needle. A remastered version that includes the 1996 mini-album Kill Trend Suicide was released in 2006. It is Brutal Truth's last album to feature Brent McCarthy.

The Sounds

The Sounds are a Swedish indie rock band. Formed in Helsingborg in 1998, the group's musical style has been compared to new wave acts such as Blondie, The Cars, the Epoxies and Missing Persons.

Their third album, Crossing the Rubicon, was released on June 2, 2009, and their fourth, Something to Die For, was released on March 29, 2011.

List of electronic music genres

List of electronic music genres

This is a list of electronic music genres, consisting of genres of electronic music, primarily created with electronic musical instruments or electronic music technology. A distinction has been made between sound produced using electromechanical means and that produced using electronic technology. Examples of electromechanical sound producing devices include the telharmonium, Hammond organ, electric piano, and the electric guitar. Purely electronic sound production can be achieved using devices such as the theremin, sound synthesizer, and computer. Genre, however, is not always dependent on instrumentation.

In its early development, electronic music was associated almost exclusively with Western art music, but from the late 1960s, the availability of affordable music technology—particularly of synthesizers—meant that music produced using electronic means became increasingly common in the popular domains of rock and pop music and classical music, resulting in major electronically based subgenres. After the definition of MIDI in 1982 and the development of digital audio, the creation of purely electronic sounds and their manipulation became much simpler. As a result, synthesizers came to dominate the pop music of the early 1980s. In the late 1980s, electronic dance music (EDM) records made using only electronic instruments became increasingly popular, resulting in a proliferation of electronic genres, subgenres, and scenes. In the new millennium, as computer technology became even more accessible and music software advanced, interacting with music production technology made it possible to create music that has some similarities and some differences to traditional musical performance practices, leading to further developments and rapidly evolving subgenres.

Heavy metal genres

Heavy metal genres

A number of heavy metal genres have developed since the emergence of heavy metal (often shortened to "metal") during the late 1960s and early 1970s. At times, heavy metal genres may overlap or are difficult to distinguish, but they can be identified by a number of traits. They may differ in terms of instrumentation, tempo, song structure, vocal style, lyrics, guitar playing style, drumming style, and so on.

The Sound of Music (Laibach album)

The Sound of Music is an album by NSK industrial group Laibach. The album is a reinterpretation of the soundtrack of the musical of the same name. Also included are Korean folks songs such as Arirang. Lead vocals are usually duets between lead singer Milan Fras and guest collaborator Boris Benko of Silence.

Hunting Ghosts (& Other Collected Shorts)

Pras Rajagoparan of Exclaim! said Hunting Ghosts sounds like a "multi-decade mash-up of pop styles feels warm, inviting and unrehearsed" and characterized the band's self-described "pop as fuck" sound as "an affable collection of songs that could more accurately be termed 'twee as fuck.'" The New Yorker 's Shoko Wagner found that the album "may well appeal to indie music fans with a taste for the lighthearted, and, of course, hip bookworms who can appreciate the group’s eclectic assortment of literary shout-outs," noting literary references in titles like "Kundera On The Dance Floor" and "Things We Stole From Vonnegut's Grave," nods to Milan Kundera and Kurt Vonnegut, respectively. Lyrics also refer to works by said authors, such as The Unbearable Lightness of Being and Slaughterhouse-Five, as well as Franz Kafka.

For Those That Wish to Exist

The genres of the album has been described as metalcore,   alternative metal,  progressive metal, and post-hardcore while exploring elements of other genres such as industrial metal,   electronic,  orchestral,  post-rock, and EDM. Specific tracks were noted to have one-off genre influence as well: The track "Black Lungs" was described as nu metal. "Flight Without Feathers" was described as having elements of electropop due to its use of keyboard and sampled beats. Some publications noted that the album had abandoned their metalcore sound. The lyrical content examines the part humans are all playing in the world's slow destruction, and tackles the biggest questions facing the future of our planet. Such concerns have long been prevalent in the music of

Sounds Like This

Not to be confused with ...Sounds Like This. Sounds Like This is the third studio album by singer/songwriter Eric Hutchinson. It was released on May 20, 2008. In the United States, the album is available as a single release in most retail and online stores. The album began at No. 1 on Billboards Heatseekers chart in September 2007. This was helped greatly by a recommendation from blogger Perez Hilton.

Another Language (album)

According to the band, Another Language's sound is "more upbeat and rhythmic" than their previous work. They also described the sound of the album with the genre "doomgaze", a portmanteau of the words doom metal and shoegaze. Fred Thomas of AllMusic described the sound of the album as "far heavier" than the "tense, brooding post-rock" on the band's previous work. He characterized the sound of Another Language as "cinematic" post-rock influenced by doom metal and shoegaze, and called the production "more intricate" and "otherworldly". Thomas also praised the band's "always airtight sense of dynamics". Matt Bobkin of Exclaim! labeled the album's sound as post-rock, but acknowledged that the band seemed to be moving away from that

Rave

by Sound System, such as Spiral Tribe, Desert Storm, Hekate, Heretik, in warehouse, dismissed buildings, or even illegal open air festivals, called Teknivals. It takes inspiration from various other genres, and mainly focuses on quick beats, 170/200 bpm, acid bassline, mentals sounds, and often samples taken from movies, popular songs or many other different media sources. Ambient, minimalist & computer music – Brian Eno, Mike Oldfield, Harold Budd, ATB, The Orb, Biosphere ; Dubstep & breakstep – Magnetic Man, Eskmo, Icicle, Loefah, Phaeleh & Burial ; Electro, glitch, techno, experimental hip hop & industrial hip hop – Flying Lotus, Juan Atkins, MARRS, Dopplereffekt, Egyptian Lover, Afrika

Shoegaze

Shoegaze combines ethereal, swirling vocals with layers of distorted, bent, or flanged guitars, creating a wash of sound where no instrument is distinguishable from another. The genre was typically "overwhelmingly loud, with long, droning riffs, waves of distortion, and cascades of feedback. Vocals and melodies disappeared into the walls of guitars." According to AllMusic, most bands drew from the music of My Bloody Valentine as a template for the genre, as well as groups such as Cocteau Twins, Dinosaur Jr., and the Jesus and Mary Chain. British duo A.R. Kane have also been credited with producing a template for the genre in the late 1980s.

Dardanelles (band)

Ghostly vocals and darkly subdued interludes grafted against bursts of noise amount to a certain degree of difficulty in pinpoint the genre of Dardanelles, who blend elements of punk, electronica, dance and pop into a distinct variant of art rock. The music press have likened elements of their sound to contemporaries Liars and TV on the Radio, as well tribal-era Cure material, Can, The Creation Records stable, psychedelic 80s Northern England outfits such as The Chameleons, aspects of first-wave Detroit-tech and, frequently, to Joy Division. The band has a demonstrated contempt for genre, with Quinn-Watson claiming "genres are quicksand, so we write songs blind to genre walls". The band members deeply interested in groove-driven music as the basis of their song-writing, and as an anchor for their excursions into atmospherics. As guitarist Alex Cameron explains "we’ve layered the recordings with backing vocals and noise that more reflects our live show". The sheer inability to categorise their sound has resulted in frustrated music journalists resorting to inventing new genres suck as "post-crunk-nu-rave", "industrial gospel/industrial pastoral" and "neu-gaze". The band neither condone nor deny such titles.

Sound Horizon

Sound Horizon is a Japanese musical group with composer Revo (musician) as the leader and only permanent member. They describe themselves as a "fantasy band" and have released works that closely resemble classical suites. Their songs often revolve around historical events and classic fairytales.

The Hunting Party (album)

album has been described as alternative metal, nu metal, hard rock, rap rock and rap metal by professional reviewers. Shinoda described the album's sound as a 1990s style of rock record: "It's a Rock record; "it's loud and it's Rock, but not in the sense of what you've heard before, which is more like '90s hardcore-punk–thrash". He described the "weak" status of modern rock in the music industry as an inspiration in recording a heavier rock album; to try to bring the sound of the 1990s back to the forefront. Shinoda criticized the modern state of alternative radio, stating "There’s so much stuff

2010s in music

By the mid-2010s, the hushed style of vocal delivery commonly used in indie music garnered widespread popularity among pop artists, used often by Selena Gomez, Lana Del Rey, Lorde and Birdy. The Guardian dubbed this style as "whisperpop", characterized by subdued vocals, muted notes and breathy intensity. Traditional instruments, such as the mandolin, dulcimer, ukulele, bongos, and accordion, were used more often, especially by indie rock musicians and singer-songwriters, including Mumford and Sons, Vance Joy, Phillip Phillips, and The Lumineers, along with country players, such as Chris Stapleton and Zac Brown Band. Adult contemporary music had been successful on the charts. Pop acts like Taylor Swift,

Souyuan

"Though this album has the Carceri sound written all over it, it’s also a bit different. There is a fair share of rhythmic structures to be found, which isn’t strange with his work, but somehow it feels different. The sounds are more experimental and subliminal, with an occasional IDM-like approach. And it also has a more industrial feel than the other releases. The total atmosphere is like being in a disturbing asylum, like ‘Seishinbyouin’. Supposedly he did about three years to create this work, also with the aid of test listeners and observing their reactions. This seems a somewhat unusual process, but if it’s true it sure did work! The sound is very scary with a lot of things happening in the background. And it’s again an album where the musician behind it all is also a great storyteller; it does really feel that it’s going somewhere, not just mere sounds, just like his other albums. A sonic movie of sorts"

Sugar Ray

Sugar Ray originally began their career as a hardcore punk band, before introducing a DJ into the band's musical composition, resulting in their first shift in style. This new sound fused glam metal and hardcore punk with funk, sample-based hip-hop, new wave, disco, dub, reggae, R&B and soul music. This sound has been predominately categorized as nu metal and funk metal,   as well as alternative metal, hard rock, punk rock and rap metal. Regarding the band's early music, singer Mark McGrath stated, "we were the Chili Peppers with zero talent. [...] Out of necessity we kind of became known as a metal band, a little pre nu-metal type rap rock thing before there was rap rock." After achieving mainstream success with the crossover hit "Fly", Sugar Ray shifted to a pop rock sound, beginning with the album 14:59. The band's later music has also been categorized as skate punk, pop, and alternative pop. The band's new sound occasionally incorporated elements of genres such as power pop and disco. The band's overall sound, throughout its shifts in style, has been characterized as alternative rock. The band's music is generally tongue-in-cheek.

Sound & Color

"A genuine Americana love letter", Sound & Color is rooted in Southern rock and soul music. It has also been noted for making "roots-rock a surprise again". Yet despite being rooted in these genres, Sound & Color includes some of the quartet's most eclectic and experimental songs to date. It features sounds of country, blues, funk, garage punk, punk rock, swamp rock, and talking blues. Its songs have been compared to musicians like Erykah Badu and Curtis Mayfield and bands like MC5 and the Strokes. The "engrossing" "Guess Who" explores jazz sounds. The "ballistic" "The Greatest" takes on cowpunk like that of the Meat Puppets, as well as hardcore punk, new wave, proto-punk, and "no-frills" rock and roll. A "fun little bash" is made out of the fusion of grunge and funk on "Shoegaze". Both songs have also been noted as garage rock. Sound & Color digs its heels into more psychedelia-based stylings,  from the "slow-burning" space rock of "Dunes" to the "celestial" psychedelic funk of "Future People". "Gemini", the record's longest song, changes between "smooth R&B and stoner-desert rock" while journeying into "zero-gravity" funk.

The experimental rendering (it was accompanied by a live band with instruments and vocalists, including Blacc, Einziger and Incubus members Ben Kenney on bass and José Pasillas on drums) reportedly confused and angered a section of the electronic dance festival community. Subsequently, Avicii achieved critical and commercial success with the release of the single worldwide.

David Copperfield

David Copperfield

David Copperfield  is a novel in the bildungsroman genre by Charles Dickens, narrated by the eponymous David Copperfield, detailing his adventures in his journey from infancy to maturity. It was first published as a serial in 1849 and 1850 and as a book in 1850.

"David Copperfield" is also an autobiographical novel: "a very complicated weaving of truth and invention", Called "the triumph of the art of Dickens",

At first glance, the work is modelled on 18th-century "personal histories" that were very popular, like Henry Fielding's "Joseph Andrews" or "Tom Jones", but "David Copperfield" is a more carefully structured work. It begins, like other novels by Dickens, with a bleak picture of childhood in Victorian England, followed by young Copperfield's slow social ascent, as he painfully provides for his aunt, while continuing his studies.

Dickens wrote without an outline, unlike his previous novel, "Dombey and Son". Some aspects of the story were fixed in his mind from the start, but others were undecided until the serial publications were underway.<ref name=Schlicke1999p151 /> The novel has a primary theme of growth and change, but Dickens also satirises many aspects of Victorian life. These include the plight of prostitutes, the status of women in marriage, class structure, the criminal justice system, the quality of schools, and the employment of children in factories.<ref name="British Library"/>

Eternal Blue (album)

Eternal Blue is the debut studio album by Canadian heavy metal band Spiritbox. It was released on September 17, 2021, through the band's own Pale Chord Records in partnership with Rise Records. Work began in 2018 and 2019 but was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which delayed the album release initially slated for April 2020. Spiritbox relocated to Joshua Tree, California, and completed the songwriting process for the album, which Dan Braunstein and the band's guitarist Mike Stringer produced. The recording was finished by Braunstein in February 2021. Eternal Blue contains an array of metal genres and subgenres with electronic elements as part of Spiritbox's dynamic, while singer Courtney LaPlante employs both screamed and clean vocals. In advance of the record's release, five songs became singles, "Holy Roller", "Constance", "Circle With Me", "Secret Garden", and "Hurt You", all of which have recorded entries on the American Billboard charts. Music critics reviewed the album positively, who generally praised its production, songwriting, and musicianship. Eternal Blue proved an immediate chart success for the band, recording entries in eight countries and debuting at number thirteen on the Billboard 200.

Eternal Blue (album)

Spiritbox employed several heavy metal-based musical styles on Eternal Blue. Critics have identified the style on the album as metalcore, post-metal, djent, progressive metal,  and alternative metal. The record was also labelled "post-metalcore" and a "nu-metal-meets-djent riff-fest". Near the release of the record, LaPlante herself defined the musical genre of Spiritbox as metalcore. LaPlante makes use of both screaming and singing throughout the record. The band's use of the digital synthesizer provided a unique sonic aspect to Eternal Blue, displaying aspects ranging from atmospheric to industrial. This approach led Guitar World to describe Spiritbox as "digitally infused metal" upon the release of what became the album's first single, "Holy Roller". Spiritbox said they derived inspiration related to this approach from the 1980s pop music scene, Nine Inch Nails, and early post-punk bands such as the Cure in an interview following the album's release; specifically, minimalist "airy" song structures characteristic of 1980s dark rock served as an important base to the music on Eternal Blue.

Indigo children

Indigo children

Indigo children, according to a pseudoscientific New Age concept, are children who are believed to possess special, unusual, and sometimes supernatural traits or abilities. The idea is based on concepts developed in the 1970s by Nancy Ann Tappe, who claimed to have been noticing indigo children beginning in the late 1960s. Her ideas were further developed by Lee Carroll and Jan Tober. The concept of indigo children gained popular interest with the publication of a series of books in the late 1990s and the release of several films in the following decade. A variety of books, conferences, and related materials have been created surrounding belief in the idea of indigo children and their nature and abilities. The interpretations of these beliefs range from their being the next stage in human evolution, in some cases possessing paranormal abilities such as telepathy, to the belief that they are more empathetic and creative than their peers.

No scientific studies give credibility to the existence of indigo children or their traits. Some parents choose to label their children who have been diagnosed with learning disabilities as an indigo child to alternatively diagnose them. Critics view this as a way for parents to avoid considering pediatric treatment or a psychiatric diagnosis. Some lists of traits used to describe indigo children have also been criticized for being vague enough to be applied to most people, a form of the Forer effect.

Question: What genre is Heist?

Heist film

While there is sometimes some confusion as to what counts as a heist film there are a set of characteristics that most films in the genre follow. The most basic of these is that films in the genre tend to follow the planning, execution and aftermath of one large robbery. While there can be smaller crimes leading up to the major crime, this major crime is the centerpiece of the film and is the event which informs much of the film's plot. As a result of this, heist films tend to focus on the process of the heist, often showing how the criminals

Heist film

The heist film or caper film is a subgenre of crime film, consisting of films that focus on the planning, execution and aftermath of a large robbery. One of the early defining heist films was The Asphalt Jungle (1950), which Film Genre 2000 wrote "almost single-handedly popularized the genre for mainstream cinema". It featured robbers whose personal failings ultimately led to the failure of their robbery. Similar films using this formula were Armored Car Robbery (1950), The Killing (1956), and The Getaway (1972). By the 1990s, heist films "experiment and play with these conventions" incorporating things like comedy into heist stories.

Two earlier films that some consider earlier examples of the genre are Criss Cross (1949) and The Killers (1946). While these films do follow the planning execution and aftermath of a single heist from the criminals perspective, critics argue that they devote too much time to the planning and aftermath of the heist and too little to the actual heist. As a result they are frequently cited as key films in the development of the genre but not the start of the genre itself. All of these

The narrative is told in a real-time-like fashion and relies on flashbacks, time-jumps, hidden character motivations, and an unreliable narrator for complexity.

The series was initially intended as a limited series to be told in two parts. It had its original run of 15 episodes on Spanish network Antena 3 from 2 May 2017 through 23 November 2017. Netflix acquired global streaming rights in late 2017.

In July 2020, Netflix renewed the show for a fifth and final part, which was released in two five-episode volumes on 3 September and 3 December 2021, respectively. Similar to "Money Heist: The Phenomenon", a two-part documentary involving the producers and cast premiered on Netflix the same day, titled "Money Heist: From Tokyo to Berlin". The series was filmed in Madrid, Spain. Significant portions were also filmed in Panama, Thailand, Italy (Florence), Denmark and in Portugal (Lisbon). A loose remake/continuation set in the same world, "", was released on June 24, 2022, while a direct spin-off, "Berlin", with Pedro Alonso reprising his role, is in active development, forming a shared universe.

The series received several awards including the International Emmy Award for Best Drama Series at the 46th International Emmy Awards, as well as critical acclaim for its sophisticated plot, interpersonal dramas, direction, and for trying to innovate Spanish television. The Italian anti-fascist song "Bella ciao", which plays multiple times throughout the series, became a summer hit across Europe in 2018. By 2018, the series was the most-watched non-English-language series and one of the most-watched series overall on Netflix,<ref

passion and impulsivity of friendship and love offset the perfect strategic crime for increased tension. Nearly all main characters, including the relationship-opposing Professor, eventually succumb to love, for which the series received comparisons to telenovelas. Comedic elements, which were compared to Back to the Future and black comedy, also offset the heist tension. The heist film formula is subverted by the heist starting straight after the opening credits instead of lingering on how the gang is brought together. With the series being set after the financial crisis of 2007–2008, which resulted in severe austerity measures in Spain, critics argued that the

For example Reservoir Dogs (1992) skips the planning and execution of the heist instead choosing to focus exclusively on the aftermath. Another example of this is The Italian Job (1969) which shows the planning and execution of the heist but doesn't fully show the aftermath.

The sub genre is also distinct for almost exclusively following the people who are committing the crime rather than following the people trying to stop the criminals. This often leads to the viewer building some form of sympathy or respect for the criminals. Another common characteristic of the heist film is the assembling of a team to complete the heist.

These range from British films like Snatch (2000) and Sexy Beast (2000) to kids films like Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) to popular Hollywood films like Inside Man (2006) and remakes of heist classics like The Italian Job (2003). Some of the most popular heist films of this era are the remake of Ocean's 11 (2001) and its sequels Oceans 12 (2004) and Oceans 13 (2007).

David Jeffries of AllMusic said, "Macklemore's a mix of all of the above with some distinctive qualities, and with Lewis putting that kaleidoscope style underneath, The Heist winds up a rich combination of fresh and familiar." Adam Fleischer of XXL praised its originality and production, stating "It's these sort of astute observations on the human condition and keen self-awareness that set this effort apart.

The Heist (2008 film)

The Heist is a quirky crime-drama about two first-time jewel thieves who stage a bizarre diamond heist with seemingly disastrous results, written and directed by short-film director Campbell Cooley and presented in 2008. With The Heist Campbell Cooley wanted to tell a character-driven story without dialogue and, to add to the complexity of the challenge, he also underscored the entire story to a minuet by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, writing the story to the music. Consistent with his style, the film is full of twists and surprises. The action flows in harmony with Mozart's Minuet movement from Divertimento in D Major. The Leith Short Film Festival in Scotland called it a "Witty & engaging crime-drama". The Panorama International Film Festival of Patras, Greece are quoted as saying: "...(the) film is very beautiful!". In April 2009, the Magma Short Film Festival in Rotorua, New Zealand bestowed it a Highly Commended Award in the festival category of Self Funded Films.

to some failing of the criminals involved in the heist. These failings range from one of the criminals in the heist getting injured during the heist to one of the criminals betraying the others during or after the heist. This trend started as a result of the initial films in the genre being made in Hollywood during the Motion Picture Production Code. Under the code criminals were not allowed to get away with crime so the heists in these early movies all fail, establishing it as a trend in the genre. In the years since the code filmmakers have made heist films

The 90s would see the return of the heist genre with a number of films creating new interest in the genre. While films like John Woo's Once a thief (1991) and Steven Soderbergh's Out of Sight (1998) would bring some interest in the genre, the three films which brought the genre back to prominence were Reservoir Dogs (1992), Heat (1995) and The Usual Suspects (1995), all of which were big

The Lufthansa Heist

Daniel Simone wrote The Lufthansa Heist in the Narrative Non-Fiction genre`, a unique technique of writing non-fiction books in the fashion of a novel. This style enlivens the story with dramatization, character development, lifelike dialogues, and vivid scenes, lending the story a cinematic effect. The genre` was created by Truman Capote when he authored his magnum opus, In Cold Blood. Capote originally labeled this writing manner as Fictionalized Journalism, though ultimately the term evolved to Narrative Non-Fiction.

This includes their moody expressionistic black and white cinematography as well as a dark and fatalistic tone key in film noir. As a result scholars such as Daryl Lee refer to this era of heist films as “noir heists”. Anne Billson of the BBC cites Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai (1954) as an influence on the "assembling the team" trope that later became a common characteristic of heist films. The period between 1955 - 1975 is considered by scholars to be the most productive period of the heist genre. This period began

While elements of the heist film can be seen in movies as early as The Great Train Robbery (1903), the genre didn't begin until the late 1940s and the early 1950s. The film widely agreed upon as the first film in the genre is John Huston's 1950 film The Asphalt Jungle, starring Sterling Hayden and Sam Jaffee (with Marilyn Monroe in a supporting role). The film contains many of the hallmarks of the genre, the most obvious of which is its following of the planning execution and aftermath of a single heist from the criminal's perspective. It also devotes a large amount of time to

Money Heist

The series was noted for its subversions of the heist genre. While heist films are usually told with a rational male Anglo-centric focus, the series reframes the heist story by giving it a strong Spanish identity and telling it from a female perspective through Tokyo. The producers regarded the cultural identity as an important part of the personality of the series, as it made the story more relatable for viewers. They also avoided adapting the series to international tastes, which helped to set it apart from the usual American TV series and raised international awareness of Spanish sensibilities. Emotional dynamics like
