The Score is a 2001 crime thriller film directed by Frank Oz. The main characters, Mike (played by Edward Norton) and Troy (played by BrÃan F. O'Byrne), are professional thieves who have planned a major heist of a priceless scepter from the Montreal Customs House.
To execute the heist, they need the help of veteran thief Nick Wells (played by Robert De Niro), who is initially hesitant to get involved. However, Wells eventually agrees to assist them in exchange for one final score that would secure his retirement.
As the trio work together to plan and execute the heist, Troy becomes increasingly conflicted about his criminal lifestyle after developing feelings for Gloria (played by Angela Bassett), a waitress at a diner where they frequently stop.
Their plan involves a complicated scheme that includes creating fake IDs, disabling security cameras, and gaining access to the building's ventilation system. However, as the heist progresses, unforeseen obstacles arise that threaten to derail their plans.
The Score was praised for its well-crafted suspenseful heist scenes and strong performances by its talented cast. It was also notable for showcasing a rare onscreen collaboration between De Niro and Norton, two of the most celebrated actors of their generation.
