William Friedkin (The Exorcist, The French Connection) established his reputation making masterpieces of what would have been mere "genre films" in the hands of a lesser director. With The Brink's Job he turns his hand to that much-loved cinematic staple, the heist film.
Based on a true story, Peter Falk leads a brilliant ensemble cast that reads like a who's-who of character actors of the era. Warren Oates (Dillinger, Two Lane Blacktop), Peter Boyle (Joe, Taxi Driver), Paul Sorvino (Goodfellas) and Gena Rowlands (Gloria, Woman Under the Influence) all work together to tell the amazing tale of a gang of two-bit hoods with very big aspirations.
