A Nice Little Bank That Should Be Robbed (1958)

Storyline

Three horse-racing lovers turn to robbery to appease their gambling appetites. Max is the nice, easygoing, vitamin-gulping guy with an out-sized swallow tube; Gus is his penniless, parasitic friend and Rocky is their bookie pal. Gus persuades Max that with his unusual swallow tube they could rob a bank and Max could swallow the note to be shown the teller after the money is handed over. They pull off the robbery with incredible ease, become involved with a vitamin-gulping horse, lose their bank roll, try robbery again – and wind up behind the Eight Ball. Tom Ewell, Mickey Rooney, Mickey Shaughnessy, Dina Merrill, Madge Kennedy, Frances Bavier (forever famous as Aunt Bee in “The Andy Griffith Show”), Richard Deacon (best remembered as Mel Cooley on TV’s “The Dick Van Dyke Show”), and Stanley Clements
