Is the IRS making you feel a poorer? As today is tax day, Disc Dish is celebrating with some great films in which characters use not-so-legal ways to fill their wallets (not that we’re advocating any, but they’re so much fun to watch.)
The question is, how well do you know your cinematic capers? Below are some of the best heist movies.
How many film titles can you match with the prize the characters are trying to steal? If you get tripped up, steal a peak at the answers.

Robinson), Jug Martin (Broderick Crawford) and Weepy Davis (Edward Brophy) launch an elaborate scheme to get to this enticing jackpot.
