“In any kind of relationship, we all steal pieces of the other person. The relationship can be beautiful, and everything a relationship should be, but that person, whilst in or coming out of the relationship will be a different person from when they entered into it. Making each of us ‘Kindest of Thieves’”
This is Sam, and I first noticed him sheltering at the side of the street. I assumed he was waiting for the bus as there was a bus stop right in front, but it turned out that he was actually taking a quick break before starting work at the Ark clothing store, next door to where we were stood.
I had to work fast, and managed to get some full-length shots before having a very brief chat. He told me his job at Ark was simply to ‘keep him going’, what he loved doing was playing the drums and he was in a band, a rock and roll duo, by the name of ‘Kindest of Thieves’. He was getting called in by his co-worker at this point so I thanked him and let him go.
When I got back home, I looked the band up and they sounded really interesting. I thought it was a shame I hadn’t had the opportunity to find out more so I sent Sam an email. I haven’t received a reply as of yet, so either he hasn’t checked his email or it’s disappeared in a junk folder somewhere. So, without a suitable quote to go on, I decided to take an excerpt from an interview the band did, relating to the origin of their name.

Ca servira à quelquechose ? Vous en pensez quoi ? Mélaine leur en a parlé et apparement tout avait l'air ok avec leur fournisseur...

German postcard by Ross Verlag, no. 5046/2 , 1930-1931. Photo: Ariel Film. Piel worked for Ariel-Film GmbH in 1928-1938, producing and directing in 1930 e.g. Achtung! Auto-Diebe!/Attention! Car Thieves! (Harry Piel, 1930), Piel's last silent film. This card seems to refer to this film.
German ‘dynamite’ director, actor, producer and screenwriter Harry Piel (1892-1963) made over 150 sensational films full of explosions and stunts. His career started also adventurous. After school he became a cadet on a sail ship and in 1911 he went to Paris to become a stunt pilot. In France he met director Léonce Perret, who introduced him to Gaumont. There he wrote his first script and the cinema became his passion. In 1912 he moved to Berlin where he founded his first film company. His debut as a director-writer-producer was the adventure film Schwarzes Blut (1912) starring Curt Goetz. Even though his company went bankrupt, Piel had become established. In the following years he shot dozens of short films full of action and adventure such as Der Triumph des Todes (1912), Ein Millionenraub (1914) and Die grosse Wette (1916). As a director he had the nickname ‘the dynamite director’ because of all the exploding bridges and houses in his movies. These explosions were often authentic. A demolition engineer notified him about forthcoming blow ups. He filmed the explosions and inserted the footage into his films.
In 1915, Harry Piel became too bored with just standing behind the camera and he started to act before the camera. His first film as a leading actor, Die große Wette (1916), was a science fiction movie on the subject of man-machines. In Unter heißer Zone (1916) he used scenes with wild animals for the first time. He pretended that he did all his stunts himself, but the most dangerous stunts were carried out by Hermann Stetza. During 1918 and 1919, Piel directed and starred in eight films of the Joe Deebs, private investigator, series. Internationally he became a popular movie star under the name of Harry Peel. In 1927 he starred in a double role alongside Marlene Dietrich in Sein größter Bluff (1927, Henrik Galeen, Harry Piel). That same year he married actress Dary Holm, who appeared in several of his films.
Effortlessly Harry Piel changed to sound film in the doppelganger comedy Er oder ich (1930). Many adventure films followed, such as the box-office hits Schatten der Unterwelt (1931), Jonny stiehlt Europa (1932) and Der Dschungel ruft (1935). Then however difficulties began with Panik (1940-1943), a remake of one of his silent films, about an animal catcher who works for German zoos. At the film's climax, an air-raid on a German city frees the wild animals in the zoo and only the heroic trapper can recapture them. The authorities found the air strikes too realistic and did not want the public to believe that Germany was in danger, so the film was forbidden. Furthermore Piel's production company Ariel-Film was liquidated through nationalization and 72 negatives of his films, nearly all silent movies, were destroyed in an air strike. Piel was a sustaining member of the SS, and after the war he first concealed this to his enquirers. He was sentenced to six months detention and five years professional disqualification. After his denazification in 1950, he founded another production company. His last directorial effort was Gesprengte Gitter (1953), which was based on Panik. However it had only moderate success and he retired. He died in 1963.
