Crackers
The Comedy that dreams the impossible scheme!
Directed by Louis Malle
Produced by Universal Pictures
A lighthearted heist comedy about down-on-their-luck misfits pulling off a robbery, driven by playful scheming and ensemble camaraderie rather than stakes or sophistication.
Down-and-out Weslake is reduced to minding the counter at a San Francisco pawn shop when he stumbles onto a scheme by some of the boss's disgruntled misfit clients to rob the place. Rather than blow the whistle, however, he insinuates himself as the heist's mastermind.
