Storyline
Dishwasher and small-fry criminal Ray hits on a plan with his partners in crime to re-open a local pizza place and dig through to the bank down the street. As his wife can't cook pizza but does great cookies, that's what they sell. While the no-hope tunnellers get lost underground, the cookie operation really takes off and the team find themselves rich business people. But the other local money isn't quite ready to accept them.

I didn't think too much of Small Time Crooks the first time I saw it but I absolutely LOVED it the second time. Great jokes , lovely score , amazing cinematography by Zhao Fei. If that's Woody losing it as some people suggest , then I'm all up for it-great stuff , keep 'em coming , Woodsman!!!!! 9 out of 10.
