Odds Against Tomorrow - 1959

I love heist movies - especially noir B movies which are heist movies. The action is in the last 15 min of the movie, but I loved how the director takes the time to build up the characters. By the time of the heist you know why each of the 3 men feel that they have to rob the bank, their lives are in shambles for different reasons. There are some recognizable actors in this show- Gloria Grahme, Ed Begley, Harry Belafonte, Shelley Winters, and even Wayne Rogers (from MASH). 3 stars for me. I like movies like this one. Regular people trying to pull off a heist.
