Wednesday night at 10 p.m. ET, TCM shows Don Siegel's Charley Varrick (1973) with Walter Matthau, Joe Don Baker, Andy Robinson, Sheree North and John Vernon

"A gang of small-time crooks rob a small-town new mexico bank and get in big-time trouble, because the loot turns out to be mob money being illegally laundered. The thieves, led by Matthau in the title role, seek to escape the police and appease the Mafia in this well-crafted and acted film. Baker plays a mob enforcer hunting Matthau's gang. Everything is tied together in the final scene."

Matthau--worth watching in just about any movie--especially pre-1996--though "Out to Sea" and the first "Grumpy Old Men" movie were amusing.
