To this day, a lot of people in infosec see Sneakers as one of the best hacker movies of all time. It holds up remarkably well because process is more important than technology, and because they go after the people in the way of their goals instead of the technologies (even when they attack technology to get through the people).

Thanks so much for doing this one! It was popular and successful, but somehow hasn't become the "classic" that it deserves to be. And although lots of movies go for an all-star cast, this has to be one of the most powerhouse casts ever: EIGHT Academy Award nominees (two of them winners)... Sidney Poitier, Robert Redford, Mary McDonnell, Dan Aykroyd, River Phoenix, Ben Kingsley, David Strathairn, and then James Earl Jones dropping in unbilled at the end. And they all bring their A-game to the witty dialogue. Not that it matters for us the viewers, but by all reports the cast had a blast working together, as they had all been fans of each other's work and don't generally get put into an ensemble like this. The director afterward said the only way it could have been more fun is if the lab lost all the film, so they could make it all over again.

Saw it when it came out as a teenager and it's still one of my favorite movies.

Its about the Oscar. The cast featured 3 Oscar winners and 5 Oscar nominees. Always a fun watch.
