Perfect Gentlemen (1978 TV Movie)
7/10
The inspiration for 2008's "Mad Money"?
1 June 2023
Watched only half-way through before, but finally watched the whole thing tonight. Cute heist film. Must be where "Mad Money" the Diane Keaton movie, got the idea.

Delightful cast- esp. Laurn Bacall and Ruth Gorden! My only complaint is the poor-quality video-transfer I saw that is in such bad shape, I almost avoided it! It really needs a good restoration. Otherwise, nice film.

Fun fact: The script writer is Nora Ephron, who went on to be best known for romcoms like "You've Got Mail" and "Julie and Julia"!

It's a made-for-TV movie that is leaps and bounds better than those made today! Funny- our TV drama shows have never been better, but our TV movies have never been worse (not counting the stodgy earliest TV movies). What's with that?! Oh well, at least the pre-2000s TV movies and feature films- like this one- show us that at some point, we got it right!
