A gang of comical crooks, rousted from the pages of Damon Runyon, knocks over the Brink's stronghold in Boston and is all set to live high on the hog the rest of their lives, when one of their members, played by Warren Oates, double-crosses them by going straight (as opposed to comic, not necessarily as opposed to crooked), turning in a prizeworthy portrayal of mental disintegration. This tribute to private enterprise, making do on a shoestring, and off-the-cuff improvisation, comes somewhat implausibly from William Friedkin, a moviemaker with a corporate mentality, heavy financing, and no imagination. Peter Falk, Paul Sorvino, Peter Boyle. (1978) — Duncan Shepherd
