The Brink's Job 1978

Comedy, Crime, Drama  Nominated for Oscar  USA

In 1950, a Brink's armored truck in Boston was robbed by a highly organized gang decked out in Halloween masks. The Brink's Job is an occasionally humorous account of that "perfect crime." Peter Falk stars as the mastermind behind the robbery, who assembles a bunch of two-bit hoods who in any other circumstance would be written off as born losers. The success of the caper hinges upon Brink's rather arrogant assumption that its trucks are unassailable and their guards are always on their toes. Wrong on both counts! This comic suspenser was based on The Big Stick Up at Brink's, a book by Noel Behn.

IMDB

 Arguably William Friedkin's funniest film, this intricately-designed heist film re-creates the famous 1950 Boston Brink's robbery with loving detail. Peter Falk stars as Tony Pino the mastermind, a small-time thug who bungles several other jobs before setting his sights higher. His crew is made up of a team of master character actors: Warren Oates, Paul Sorvino, Peter Boyle, Allen Garfield, etc., with Gena Rowlands as Tony's wife. Friedkin concentrates, with his usual skill, on the tiny details of the robbery, but with a kind of ironic joy; it's a small town, and everyone seems to know what Tony's up to, but nobody cares. (The robbers actually hold little meetings inside the Brink's building at night.) The comedy then flows naturally from the characters and their interactions, though Friedkin keeps it from getting too broad and slapsticky. The movie's trump card is Sheldon Leonard as a half-mad J. Edgar Hoover, who sees commies as responsible for the job. The strange ending is perfect for Friedkin: after all this research and detail, nothing is ever final, definite or understandable. The film received one Oscar nomination, for its impressive set design and art direction.
