Larceny, Inc.

Maxwell hopes to purchase a dog racing track in Florida and become a legitimate businessman with Denny Costello, his adopted daughter.

Meanwhile, slick salesman Jeff Randolph convinces Weepy to order several dozen pieces of luggage to stock the store.

When Denny discovers Pressure's scheme, she gets Jeff to create various advertising gimmicks that bring in a flood of customers, forcing a stop to the noisy digging and showing the crooks that legitimate sales can be profitable.

Due to the success of the luggage business, Pressure has abandoned the robbery plan, but Leo forces them to go through with it.

The plot of Woody Allen's Small Time Crooks is similar to the plot of Larceny, Inc..[1] Allen never has commented on whether this was deliberate or if his film was in any way inspired by Larceny, Inc.. Robinson took the role of Pressure Maxwell in this film to offset his "tough guy" image as established in his many appearances as gangsters or police officers in previous Warner Bros.
