The Great St Louis Bank Robbery

In St. Louis, career criminal John Egan has brought together two of his former associates, Gino and Willie - all three who have served time behind bars - for what will be John's last heist, a planned bank robbery. No longer trusting Willie's judgment in his usual task, John assigns Gino to find a replacement getaway driver. Who Gino recruits is his younger sister Ann's ex-boyfriend, seemingly clean cut George Fowler. George had once attended college on a football scholarship, but ended up dropping out, his feeling of not being good enough the reason he broke up with Ann. Knowing his football life is past him, George wants whatever his cut from the robbery to be able to go back to college. Although George signed up solely to be the getaway driver, no more, no less, John makes it an all or nothing proposition for George, both to test his mettle and to test his loyalty to the job. Beyond the regular obstacles in pulling off the heist, two developments make the task more difficult. First, Willie shows an immediate animosity to George, who he both does not trust and sees as usurping his position especially within John's eyes. And second, George necessarily reconnects with straight-laced Ann. In there still being feelings between the two, Ann, who knows full well the type of man her brother is, may put herself in a precarious position in the middle between George and whatever criminal activity into which Gino has brought him.
