Cops and Robbers

I've seen some movies about cops and robbers.  One of them is Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs, about a group of jewelry store robbers whose heist turned violent, and is one of them an informer?  The robbers all have code names like Mr. White and Mr. Orange.  There's a lot of great dialogue, like "You have to have rocks in your head the size of Gibraltar to be an undercover cop!" Steve Buscemi has a funny role as Mr. Pink.  In the first scene everyone is chipping in a dollar for the waitress' tip, but he puts up a fuss because he doesn't believe in tipping!  As for waitresses depending on tips to get by, he says, "Let 'em learn to type!"

Another cops & robbers movie is Michael Mann's Heat, with Robert de Niro as a bank robber and Al Pacino as the cop who's out to nail him. (Pacino played a bank robber in Dog Day Afternoon.) De Niro's young partner Val Kilmer is married to Ashley Judd, who has a powerful scene near the end, but I can't describe it without spoiling the movie!  I liked the scene where Pacino finds his wife with her lover and tells him, "You can ball my wife, but you can't watch my TV set!" Then he unplugs the set and lugs it out.

Buscemi played a character similar to Mr. Pink in Fargo. And Pacino played a cop similar to his Heat character in Insomnia.

And there's John Huston's The Asphalt Jungle from 1950.  There's a good moment near the end where one of the crooks is being taken to his cell, past the cell containing the guy who ratted them out, and lunges out at him in sheer rage!
