Smart Money is a BBC film made in 1986 which was written by Matthew Jacobs and directed by Bernard Rose.

Leon hangs around in an arcade and meets an intimidating bald headed man who bullies him into wagering money.

He is paid to show his computer hacking skills to the attendees in order that they purchase security software.

Eddie explains that she had no choice but to distract McNiece with sex, but does not make Leon aware that McNeice knows what they are up to.

The next day, an employee of McNiece's company triggers the software payload by playing the fisheries game.

Massive sums of money now lie in the gang's account, with McNeice screaming that he is locked out of his own system.

McNiece's furious and overly demonstrative attempts to stop the hacker are at odds with his quiet apologies to his bosses, as he explains he will get the money back.

Eddie seems to have been expecting this visit, and she explains that she is working with McNeice and has decided that they should give the money back.

They discuss that they are heading for the airport and laugh as they appear to have got away with the crime, leaving Leon and Freak to take the blame.

Leon decides to chase after them and in his hurry to leave he doesn't hear Freak shouting out of the window that this is all a set-up.

Leon steals a car, and chases Eddie, although his choice of vehicle leave a lot to be desired.

The car is crashed, McNeice is trapped, and the police arrive to find Eddie (and the remaining briefcases of cash) are nowhere to be seen.

Although the film received mixed to negative reviews,[citation needed] it is notable for its highly accurate computer hacking scenes using authentic software instead of mock-up graphics.

The film was released on VHS in America, and at least one of the actors had their dialogue replaced as it was felt that American Audiences would not be able to understand the English regional dialects.
