The Robert Redford gang blueprints a lucrative jewel theft, only nothing goes according to the butterfingers' plans. Directed by Peter Yates ("Bullitt") from Donald Westlake's novel. Followed by a sequel, "Bank Shot" (1974), with George C. Scott snatching a bank -- foundation and all! Redford's unrelated caper, "Sneakers" (1992), is more dramatic, although it does drive to a humorous climax.
