In Michael Corrente’s film from David Mamet’s play, funded by FilmFour, junk store proprietor Donny (Dennis Franz) regrets selling a buffalo nickel (a rare American coin). His teenaged assistant Bobby (Sean Nelson) is keen to take on the job of stealing it back but a petty crook called Teach (Dustin Hoffman) sees an opportunity for himself. A fascinating three-way relationship develops as they mistrust each other and realign themselves in what proves inevitably a vain enterprise., An antique-shop owner unwittingly sells a buffalo nickel for a paltry sum and, realizing its value, plots to steal it back from the collector who bought it., A pair of ne’er-do-wells and their young intern plot the theft of a valuable Buffalo-head nickel in this drama that is based on a 1975 play by David Mamet. Most of the story takes place within the junky confines of Don Dubrow’s second-hand store. Don and his young protege Bobby begin plotting the heist after a sly customer comes in and buys an extremely valuable coin for next to nothing. When Don discovers that the coin was worth a fortune, he feels cheated and decides to get the coin back. Unfortunately the volatile, self-absorbed Teach overhears their plan and weasels his way into the contrivance. Most of the story focuses on the machinations of these three well-drawn characters who provide fascinating insight into the criminal mind as they ingeniously devise new ways to manipulate and aggravate each other., Don is the owner of an “antique store” (read: junk shop) who discovers that the buffalo head nickel he recently sold to a coin collector was a lot more valuable than he imagined. Don hatches a scheme in which he and Bobby, a teenage kid who works at the shop, will steal the nickel back and sell it for a much higher price. Teach, Don’s down-on-his-luck buddy, insists on coming in on the job, but Don isn’t sure he wants Teach’s help – or that the robbery is a good idea at all… Based on the original play by David Mamet.
