Bank Robbery Collection: The Great Bank Hoax/The Great Bank Robbery

MOVIE DESCRIPTION:

A clerk decides to test the system and embezzles a tidy sum from smalltown Pewter Bank & Trust. Corrupt bank officials see a chance to turn the sum into some more. Much more. And so the escalating cover-ups and crack-ups begin in the comical Watergate parable The Great Bank Hoax. Among the stars bringing the jokes to the hoax: Richard Basehart, Ned Beatty and Burgess Meredith. The spoof is loose again in The Great Bank Robbery, a Western gone loco with the bank-robbing dreams of competing gangs headed by a bumbling bandito (Akim Tamiroff) and a bogus preacher (Zero Mostel)... and with the crook-wrangling schemes of a clever lawman (Clint Walker). Also on board: Kim Novak and Larry Storch. Bank on having a Great time!
