The Steel Trap (1952)
A Bank officer discovers a flaw in the U.S. extradition treaty with
Brazil and decides to take advantage of it. On Friday, he steals a
million dollars from the bank, knowing it won't be missed until the bank
opens on the following Monday. He and his wife, who doesn't know what
he has done, then take a flight to Brazil. After some difficulties, they
get as far as New Orleans, where his wife discovers the reason for
their flight and what he has done. She leaves him and returns home. He
is now alone with his conscience, and doesn't know if he can get back
and return the money to the bank's vault before the start of business on
Monday.
