Objectivist Bad Guys?

I was kinda harsh on Hiraghm the other day with his THREE DAYS OF A CONDOR post, so figured I'd stick my neck out with one of my favorites.

Frank, the titular Thief, is just about as close to an Objectivist as I've found in movie bad guys.

(If only he stole from the state instead of the private sector. Of course Ragnar not only stole from the state but he gave the money back to those it was taken from. Big difference!)

Anyway, one cool thing about this show, it reminds you that the distance between Objectivism and the average man is less than you might think. Frank makes a plan for his life and pursues it with competence and integrity. That really resonates with the viewer.

If you haven't seen it, I'm pretty sure it's on Netflix.

So, does anyone remember this one? What did you think? Thumbs up? Down? Meh?
