B o B - High Life 2011

1983. A blue collar ex-con who always wanted to be a lawyer, Dick, a cinemaphile, is largely trying to go the straight and narrow working as a hospital janitor. Dick's straight life quickly goes out the window when his cellmate of three years, Bug, an April Wine aficionado, is released from prison, an incident initiated by Bug three hours after his release effectively getting Dick fired. Wanting some cash to feed their illicit drug use - Dick's drug of choice being morphine - Dick comes up with a precision laden plan to steal an uncertain amount of money housed in a newfangled and seemingly somewhat unsecured machine: an ATM. He sees the crime as being victimless and it is not to include any violence. Dick has a third in mind for their team in the form of Donnie, another prison mate of theirs who was released a while ago and who already has a penny ante scam to steal dollars here and dollars there from largely unsuspecting seniors who he thinks rarely even notice the missing money. Dick's plan requires one more team member, a boy scout type who is also a ladies man. Dick is able to find that fourth in the form of Billy, who none of three know, who is seemingly like-minded in striving for their end goal of wanting drugs as seen by how Dick discovered him, and whose background, which only Dick knows, does not include something, that missing something that would disqualify him from the job if Bug or Donnie knew. Dick quickly learns that his three associates are not too concerned about precision and are quickly willing to improvise if and when the plan goes off the rails and/or the appropriate situation arises, which can mean the job going in three different and unknown directions from Dick's plan.
