Queen Latifah Leads a Trio of Bank Robbers
People started thinking of
hip-hop's Queen Latifah as a serious actress after her riveting
portrayal of a lesbian bank robber in Set It Off, so perhaps it's
no surprise she's ready for another hold-up.
This time it's an inside job, as bank tellers Latifah, Katie Holmes,
and Diane Keaton team up to loot their employer in the upcoming
Mad Money.
 Writing
and directing the film is someone else who's had a little experience
with cinematic larceny - Callie Khouri, whose script
of Thelma & Louise gave us two unlikely outlaws now legendary
among lesbian film fans.
Money-hunting trios have given us terrific movies before, from How to
Marry a Millionaire to How to Beat the High Cost of Living,
so expect this caper to be lots of fun when it hits theaters in 2008.
