Big Deal on Madonna Street (1958) Synopsis

Caught red-handed for a crime he swears he didn't commit, hopeful criminal mastermind and--for now--small-time thief Cosimo entrusts square-jawed boxer Peppe with the plan for a seemingly fail-proof pawnshop heist on quiet Madonna Street. However, as the news of this lucrative job spreads like wildfire, instead, it's Cosimo's band of maladroit petty criminals--including a destitute photographer with fatherly obligations--who will take action for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Will things work as planned?—Nick Riganas
