The Late Film: A Piece of the Action

on BBC One London

starring
Sidney Poitier Bill Cosby
Manny and Dave have an original way with crime - they only rob the safes, wallets and stashes of the professional thief. But these latter-day Robin Hoods have a real problem when a local racketeer decides to get even. But that's only the beginning of this suspenseful, laugh-filled misadventure.
Screenplay by CHARLES BLACKWELL Produced by MELVILLE TUCKER Directed by SIDNEY POITIER
