When the Secret Service draws a blank, treasury agent Steve Buchanan is sent to track down a notoriously inept counterfeiter, not knowing that the culprit is a kindly old man who prints notes to make ends meet., The FBI can’t seem to nab an elderly counterfeiter. Strangely enough, based on fact. Excellently performed, well-made., Based on a true story, Mister 880 is the whimsical tale of an elderly gentleman (Edmund Gwenn) who dabbles in counterfeiting. He makes only enough “funny money” to support himself, but the fact that his work is so amateurish (he can’t even spell “Washington”) arouses the indignation of the treasury department. Burt Lancaster, the hard-nosed treasury agent put on the case, is determined to prosecute the miscreant to the full extent of the law. In tracking down a lead, Lancaster falls in love with Dorothy McGuire, a recipient of one of the phony bills. Lancaster discovers that McGuire lives in the same building as Gwenn, and after piecing together the clues arrests the old fellow. Softened by Gwenn’s naivete, Lancaster and Ms. McGuire arrange for a compassionate lawyer to lessen what would otherwise be a stiff prison sentence. Mister 880 was to have starred Walter Huston as the ingenuous counterfeiter, but Huston died just before filming started., Charming and witty fable starring Oscar nominee Edmund Gwenn as a highly unusual counterfeiter and Burt Lancaster as the US Treasury Department agent on his trail.
