Came bubbling up in my brain during discussions of _Hell or High Water_. It’s a movie I saw with my sister in 6th grade or thereabouts, maybe 1971. There were some quantity of senior citizens (2? 3?) of whom I only remember the woman. There was some plot point establishing a money problem, and fixed income and all that. They decide to rob a bank. There’s a speciifc pair of scenes: the woman watches a movie about a mobster robbing a bank and he uses the line “put the money in the bag or I’m gonna open you up like a can of tomatoes”. So in the bank she has a gun and uses the same line on the bank teller; “put it in the bag or I’ll open you up like a can of tomatoes”. I don’t recall it as being a very good movie but now I’m annoyed because I can’t find any reference to it. I _can_ tell you that it’s not that Art Carney & co movie _Going in Style_ – that was from a lot later and it doesn’t sound like it has that line in it. (although if there was a version of it made back in the early 70s I could be wrong about that… but it definitely wasn’t from 1978, that’s far too late in time) ---

I did too and got page after page of irrelevant search results. You’re obviously better with Google than I am!
