SYNOPSIS

In this classic comic caper, struggling actors O’Malley (Michael Caine) and Tom (Dylan Moran) are looking for an escape from the nightly humiliation of repertory theatre. 

One befriends a local gangster and hatches an apparently foolproof plan to make some easy cash. In order to pull off the scam they take on various disguises and characters and discover a talent for crime, that they never had for acting. 

When the real hoods arrive the actors-cum-criminals find their intricate web of deceit stretched to the limit.
