Brattle Theatre Presents: Larceny, Inc.

One of Warners’ most versatile and unexpected stars was the diminutive Romanian Jew, Edward G. Robinson. Widely known for his gangster roles, Robinson became synonymous with the genre, but his acting career is far more varied than that. In LARCENY, INC. Robinson leans into his type casting—but for well-earned comedic effect. He plays a robber trying to break into a bank by digging in from a luggage store next door. The problem is that the luggage store is too popular!
