    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Jack Hawkins was ill with cancer during filming. Shooting was shut down for several days.
    • Goofs
      As Col. Hyde is showing the movie of the exterior of the bank that they will rob he tells his cohorts, "This is the view of the bank that you will see three weeks from today, gentlemen." Sure enough, during the events just before the actual robbery: As the guard opens the rear door of the armored truck, the same-dressed man with a newspaper in his overcoat pocket walks past and, as the guards put the boxes on the flatbed truck, the same two women in light overcoats walk past.
    • Quotes
      • Major Race: Is that your wife?
      • Lt. Col. Hyde: Yes.
      • Major Race: Is she dead?
      • Lt. Col. Hyde: No, no. I regret to say the bitch is still going strong.
