Michel Legrand’s The Windmills of Your Mind is one of the most perplexing theme songs ever recorded for a Hollywood heist film. It somehow magically works, however, for this tale about a wealthy Boston thrill-seeker (McQueen) who meets his romantic and strategic rival in the insurance investigator (Dunaway) intent on taking him in for a bank job that he orchestrated for kicks.
