Plot
Beware Pickpocket is a compelling character study, a stylistic heist film and a genre shifting love story set in the city of Toronto. It intimately focuses on a twenty-four-hour period in the life of a mysterious and lascivious pickpocket who has come to Toronto to win back the love of his life -an escort named Charlotte. Problem is he isn't nearly as gifted a con-artist as he believes he is and the love of his life doesn't react kindly to his forced reunion.
Plot
Eleven Gilbert & Sullivan numbers are melded within the murder-mystery plot of "Girl on the Spot", with a result that either G&S; and/or the plot are always seemingly on stage-wait or in the wings awaiting a cue. Lois Collier is the girl-on-the-spot of the title because she was on the scene of a murder. The police conclude she didn't do it and they use her to set a trap for the real killer, a G&S; addict, by financing a Broadway production starring Collier. The police department evidently found the money for financing a Broadway show under "Misc.Expenses" in the city budget.

Pickpocket is a 1959 film by the French director Robert Bresson. It starred Martin LaSalle, who was a nonprofessional actor at the time, in the title role, with Marika Green as the ingénue. It was the first film Bresson wrote the screenplay for rather than "adapting it from an existing text."
As in Diary of a Country Priest, some screen time is devoted to the protagonist's writings, and, as in A Man Escaped, the protagonist's voice is heard more in the voiceover than in dialogue.
Michel (Martin LaSalle) goes to a horse race and steals some money from a spectator. He leaves the racetrack confident he was not caught when he's suddenly arrested. The inspector (Jean Pélégri) releases Michel because the evidence is not strong enough; Michel says it's not a crime to have cash.
Visiting his mother, Michel meets Jeanne (Marika Green) who begs him to visit his mother more often. Jacques goes on a date with Jeanne and invites Michel along. But after stealing a watch, Michel leaves Jacques and Jeanne at the carnival. While in a bar the inspector asks Michel to show him a book by George Barrington about pickpocketing at the station on a convenient morning, and Michel goes down to the police station with it. Once there, the inspector barely glances at the book. Michel goes back to his apartment realizing that it was all just a ruse to search his apartment. However, the cops failed to find his stash of money.
In the humble stance of nativity
Hummed the smell of television snow
A faint S.O.S. flickering
Riding on the coat tails of their ground zero
Neighborhood footprints ingrown
The daylight savings time will never know
Of this alabaster cold
Of this alabaster
Your lovers quarrel ended up in craw space
Dental identities will tell us apart
Teeth marked and bounded with sighs
Step into my parlor said the spider to the fly
Stable hooved footprints ingrown
Cloak and dagger muzak blared in ohms
Of this alabaster cold
Of this alabaster cold
Of this alabaster cold

Picked you out my pocket, and you fell into the road
You asked me if I'd make it better
Asked me if we could grow old together
But you don't mean a thing to me
So I'll walk by quite happily
And now I guess that you've moved on aswell
You took me to the bricks
You start to build a wall
Keep peace intact
Protect your family
Keep them from harm
Live peacefully, but they came crumbling down
The second you left town,
And now your family are gone, are gone
Understand me, take me, fully
Underground where I can not be found
Understand me, take me, fully
Underground where I can not be found
And a letter that you wrote
That had been stashed inside my wall
Telling me all about your life
It had been there for a quite a while
It skipped out certain chapters
That I thought had really mattered
And now I feel like I missed out
Out, baby out, get out of town
Baby out, baby out, get out
Baby out, baby out, get out of town
Before it catches up with you
And you cannot withstand
Before it catches up with you
And you cannot withstand
Before it catches up with you
I'm not what I seem to be life to me's no mystery
Those like me will rot in jail longer than their life will be
CHORUS:
My hand's in your pocket I'm taking what's yours
What I eat, my survival all depends on what I steal
When you turn your back I'll steal your money stolen money buys my meals
CHORUS
I'll steal your money too
Master of deceptive fables criminal insanity
It always beats real work time, wages, income earned. I live like kings
If the suckers ever catch me it's for sure that I would die
CHORUS
Back on the streetsI'm kickin' beats from my people
Cabbage patch, Robo Cop, and Evil Kinevil
And some of them make fun of me
And pass it around
But this room is consumed by song and its sound
So kick it, lick it, bodies bootylicious
Make it, take it, why you gotta break it?
The sun has been setting on the two of us
And I'd give you a chance
But I'm through with us
Feeling the funk
So you best shake your junk and
If you want to hop aboard
On this rhythm wants to float a little
Kiss on the cheek
Girl, you making me weak
Always showing your teeth
Causing me to believe
That I got some disease,
And I never could please
And I'm covered in grease
And you never wanted me
That's when the rhythm gets harder
We bust phat beats on the streets
As competitions gets martyred
But we never pick-a-pocket
Thieve a rhyme, try to hock it
Block it, my beats be strapped to a rocket
Knock it off, I've had enough
You want check it
Riggity rest the best on the wiggity west coast
Rockin' all the parties
Takin' all the girlies
Into the Jacuzzis
Fighting off the oozies
Feeling the funk
So you best shake your junk and
If you want to hop aboard
On this rhythm wants to float a little
Kiss on the cheek
Girl, you making me weak
Always showing your teeth
Causing me to believe
That I got some disease,
And I never could please
And I'm covered in grease
And you never wanted me
Now hold up,
I keep it simple
I'm poppin' whack beats like a pimple
We're comin' at you live
With a simple goal in mind
Which is shaking girlies assess in a single file line
One up, two up, no time for us to screw up
So hit this party hard
While you're doggie's in our yard
Nothing but chases from faces full of braces
Feeling the funk
So you best shake your junk and
If you want to hop aboard
On this rhythm wants to float a little
Kiss on the cheek
Girl, you making me weak
Always showing your teeth
Causing me to believe
That I got some disease,
And I never could please
And I'm covered in grease
