Nicolas Cage’s WWII thriller isn’t the first movie to be a victim of analogue theft
['Lily Hardman']

Most of the contraband was reportedly empty, but one of them contained an unreleased Nicolas Cage movie called Fortitude.
This was the height of film theft from cinemas, likely because of the obvious value of the film.
No other release has come close to the Jedi’s track record, but there was one curious and much more personal case of analogue movie theft that deserves a special mention (and its own film adaptation).
LAPD detective Fabian Ospina was assigned to the case and discovered that the theft had not been perpetrated by a seasoned movie pirate but by a sex worker.
But first, can we get some movies about the Jedi robberies and, above all, give that sex worker the Hollywood protagonist treatment they deserve?
