Masterminds

Criminal Adaptations

In October 1997, small-town North Carolina resident, David Ghantt, executed one of the largest heists in American history by stealing $17 million from his employer Loomis Fargo, an armored-car company. He passed the money to his co-conspirators and fled the country, eagerly awaiting his third of the cash and love interest, Kelly Campbell, to join him. The series of missteps resulting in their capture was the source of Jared Hess’s Masterminds (2016), featuring an all-star cast of Zach Galifianakis, Owen Wilson, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones, and Jason Sudeikis. What was fictionalized for this wild ride of a comedy? Listen now to find out.
