A teller in a shopping mall bank branch, Miles Cullen (Elliot Gould) realizes that a man is planning a robbery. When the robbery takes place, Miles diverts most of the money to his own safety deposit box, handing only a small amount over to the crook (Christopher Plummer). Miles’s scheme goes awry when the robber discovers he’s been shorted, with violent consequences.

The Fort Worth Film Club (FWFC) partnered in 2022 with the Reel House Foundation after the closing of Fort Worth’s lone art house theater, the Grand Berry Theater. Continuing what the Grand Berry started, FWFC's goal is to build a community in Fort Worth around a shared love of film. The Club hosts free monthly screenings, focusing on films with cultural and local importance. Screenings are open to the public and are followed by a moderated discussion.
