Crime Spree Page #4

Synopsis: Would-be thieves of the French underworld, Marcel (Johnny Hallyday) and Zero (Renaud) have a knack for doing everything wrong. But even their most ardent doubters could not have seen the latest disaster coming. After being handed a seemingly easy score -- robbing a Chicago house said to be full of jewels -- the crew rips off mob boss Frankie Zammeti's (Harvey Keitel) home instead. They then steal a street gang's car for their getaway, which gets them into even more hot water.

DANIEL:

Uh, yeah.

BASTALDI:

Good. I have a job for you in America.

Bastaldi tosses a photo of a middle-aged American couple. He points

to a diamond necklace around the woman's neck.

BASTALDI:

The Taylors from Chicago. Very rich.

An acquaintance of mine recently quit

working for Mrs. Taylor as an assistant.

She tells me they keep all their jewelry

in a safe in their bedroom.

JULIEN:

It seems like a long way to go for a

necklace.

DANIEL:

Besides, we don't know the city and--

MARCEL:

(overlapping)

Mr. Bastaldi isn't asking you if you

want to go.

He's telling you you're going! And if

he's telling you you're going to be going

then you are going to go!

BASTALDI:

Thank you Marcel, for that... extremely

redundant explanation.

DANIEL:

C'mon, Laurant, America?

BASTALDI:

The job is worth about two million euros.

Pull this off and you and your crew could

make some real money, Daniel. You leave

tomorrow.

They know they don't have a choice.

JULIEN:

We're going to need to find someone who

knows the city.

MARCEL:

I know someone.

EXT. NOTRE DAME -- DAY

The plaza is filled with tourists. Moving through the crowd is

SAMI ZERHOUNI, Algerian, late 20's, a small time street hustler,

dressed in jeans and a "I Love Paris" tee-shirt. He passes a

MAN who is about to take a picture and lifts his wallet.

Sami moves on. He sees two overweight women standing at a

vendor's cart, holding a large wad of MONEY. The woman puts the

cash back in her purse, but does not zip it up.

Sami moves in behind her and slips his hand into the purse. She

zips the bag closed. Sami's face fills with pain as the zipper

catches the hair of his arm. The women walk towards the

cathedral. Sami has no choice but follow after them. He tries

to match their pace so he doesn't alert them of his presence.

The woman looks back and sees Sami's hand. She pulls her bag

away, ripping a section of hair off his arm, then swings the

bag, putting all of her weight behind it. It hits Sami squarely

in the face. He lands on his back with a thud. WALLETS and

BILLFOLDS fly out from every one of his pockets.

He staggers to his feet and starts to pick up the wallets when

he sees...
