โฆ Synopsis
"The only guys I trust are in this room right now. But I'll tell you this: we're gonna get that airplane money. I don't know how yet, but it's all I can think about. So, for now at least, we gotta make him think we trust him. We need him."
Chicago. Taylor Street. 1986. Accomplished burglar Ralph "Beans" Trombino surrounds himself with the fringe elements that frequent the neighborhood social clubs. Outfit guys, dirty cops, thieves, bookies, and gamblers.
With his photographic memory and almost supernatural instincts, Beans has developed a reputation among his kind as an exceptional planner of heists. He and his lifelong friends, Cosh and Izzy, consider themselves honorable thieves. No stickups. No killing for money. No stealing from people who don't have it coming. But when they take on the score of a lifetime-a plane carrying freshly minted cash to the Chicago Federal Reserve-the lines begin to blur.
Their man on the inside...M.F
