The Midas Touch

The 1903 Silent Film by Edwin Porter.  The gold heist films continues.

A group of American soldiers led by Clint Eastwood venture into enemy territory during WWII to steal a huge cache of gold bars located in a bank vault. It’s certainly unlike most heist films in that it’s also a war movie, and both the robbers and the bank guards are armed with tanks.

Continuing our gold heist season with the film “Three Kings.” In the aftermath of the Persian Gulf War, 4 soldiers set out to steal gold that was stolen from Kuwait, but they discover people who need their help.
