WHERE THE MONEY IS

In the Sunday night movie slot, M-Net Stars (Channel 105) will screen Where the Money Is on August 22 at 19h35. The film stars Paul Newman and Dermot Mulroney and was directed by Marek Kanievska in 2000.

Henry Manning is an ageing bank robber who is admitted to a nursing home after suffering a stroke. Unable to move or speak, he just sits; until his nurse decides he’s faking. Carol tries to seduce him, but he doesn’t move a muscle. Then she does something a little more drastic. It works and Henry admits he was faking not being able to move. He expects her to turn him in. Instead, she makes a suggestion - teach me how to rob a bank!
