Lockpicking scene on television

Postby msiss003 » 22 Jul 2018 14:36

I am looking for a television show or movie which had a lockpicking scene.The lockpicking scene had a man and a woman trying to lockpick a door.The man had either a set of keys or lockpicks in his hand.He went through either a few keys or lockpicks before he unlocked the door.The man was rushing through the lockpicks or keys then he found the right one and unlocked the door.The room was dark and the door was brown.The woman was standing beside him while he was fumbling through the lockpicks or keys before he unlocked the door.In another scene an actor walks in and a lady in a red dress with blond hair in a pitch black room is sitting down then she disappears.I saw the scenes on television in 2013 and I do not know the names of the actors or title.

I don't know of this particular scene. There is quite a big list of these scenes on YouTube: "Lockpicking in the Media, playlist".

Even 'The Americans' can't get lock-picking right. I'm frustrated how they got impressioning wrong too.

Is it the keymaster from the matrix? Reddit would be better at answering this question

I also thought about this movie as being a possibility.

I think the most recent season of Luke Cage got it right. In one of the episodes the character Misty can be seen using a picking gun and she also has a tension wrench with her!

OP who will probably never return to read this...

Is this the woman in red and the man you saw at the door?

well then you need to provide some more info please, we are not psychic. or post this question on Reddit where a million more people will see your question, but dont post it in /r/Lockpicking, post it in some general questions sub reddit where a ton of people hang out.

What decade do you imagine their clothing was from or the movie was based in, was the movie possibly science fiction or more like a cops and bad guys movie? was it an indie movie or something popular.. were the actors famous actors you recognized from other movies? Was this in the United States on TV or another country?

Why is this important to you 5 years after you saw it?
