This Is Not A Robbery
Feature Documentary/Get Out of Jail / Awards Night
In 1998, after 86 years of law-abiding life, Red Rountree decided to hold up a bank in Biloxi Mississippi. Before that he had survived the great depression, made a fortune in oil, supported a family and, as he tells it, 'never even gotten a ticket for speeding.' In 2003, after a six-year crime spree, three trips to jail and a love affair with a 30 year old prostitute, he died at age 92 with the undisputed title of 'World's Oldest Bank Robber'.
