TA:MOU = Themed Anniversary: Moving On Up




DA EVEN NEWER ROOLZ

Each Tuesday a theme will be decided based on the Anniversary of some significant event. All you have to do is trawl your reviews for any that relate to that event and post them here with a link.

You can post as many as you wish, so long as either the film or your review clearly relates to the theme. You can only post during the week of the current TA:MOU.

You don't have to say you voted unless you really want to - but you are expected to visit all the links posted. As a courtesy to the majority of fwfrs, you may only post a link that uses the http://www.fwfr.com domain name.

Each TA:MOU # will be removed when a new one takes its place. This is to deter re-visiting of expired threads.

Yours truly
Da Management


ON THIS DAY
in 1785 the nascent nation of the United States of America adopted the dollar as its official monetary unit.

In this time of dwindling financial resources, some naughty people turn to robbery. Some target banks because, as 1930s bank robber Willie Sutton observed, "That's where the money is."

Put your money on your best reviews for films whose plots depend on one or more bank robberies. The test would be that reference to the robbery should appear in any one or two sentence description of the film.

You'll never take me alive, copper!

Oh, I see what you mean now. Each film has to be sufficiently to do with bank robbing that that fact would be mentioned in any short summary.

I think that's what she means.

For instance, this version of The Thomas Crown Affair, right? Well, no, I don't have a review for it, yet. But I do have...

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

I'll try to come back with more, later.
