Money Movers


Money Movers is a 1978 Australian crime action drama film directed by Bruce Beresford. The film was based on the book Money Movers by Devon Minchin, founder of Metropolitan Security Services. The story deals loosely with two reallife events, the 1970 Sydney Armoured Car Robbery where A500,000 was stolen from a Mayne Nickless armoured van, and a 1970 incident where A280,000 was stolen from Metropolitan Security Services offices by bandits impersonating policemen.

An armoured payroll truck owned by Darcys Security Services is robbed and the driver, expoliceman Dick Martin, is removed from armoured cars and put onto night patrols. The robbers are double crossed by crime boss Jack Henderson whose henchman Dino kills all the robbers.Lionel Darcy, head of the company, suspects a major robbery is being planned but is unaware that all the culprits are employed by the company. He asks former employee Mindel Seagers to look into newcomer to the firm, Leo Bassett. Jack Henderson discovers a robbery is being planned by Eric Jackson, a former speedway driver and a Senior Supervisor with Darcys, and his brother Brian Jackson who also works as a guard for Darcys as an armoured truck driver. When Eric Jackson breaks into Bassetts apartment, Hendersons men kidnap him and cut off the little toe on his left foot with a pair of bolt cutters in their attempt to force him to work for him. ........
