When
it comes to robbing banks, Henry Manning was the best of the
best: admired by cops and robbers alike, a legend in his time.
But that was before Henry started doing prison time, and before
the stroke which has reduced old Henry to a vegetable - a drooling,
catatonic, pathetic creature in need of round-the-clock nursing.
While waiting for the construction of a new prison hospital
to be complete, Henry is transferred to a nursing home for the
elderly. There, he comes under the care of a nurse, Carol Ann
McKay, a former prom queen whose wild ways of her youth have
tamed considerably in the ten years since she married the local
high school football star, Wayne. Carol begins to suspect that
Henry's afflictions may not be quite as debilitating as the doctors
and prison authorities are convinced when one day a pair of her
panties inexplicably disappears. Carol and her husband secure
permission to take Henry for a day's excursion away from the
nursing home, and manage to crack the sly bankrobber's facade
of helplessness.
Of course, they would never betray Henry's deception, especially
not after Carol decides that with her and Wayne's help, Henry
is in the perfect position to pull off the greatest heist of
his fabled career.
Screen legend Paul Newman stars as Henry, the fabled bankrobber.
Co-starring as his nurse and partner-in-crime is Linda Fiorentino
(MEN
IN BLACK; THE
LAST SEDUCTION).
