Violent Saturday
Violent Saturday
A number of otherwise insignificant small-town stories erupt into drama when a gang of hoodlums decides to rob the local bank. A father looking for pride in his son's eyes, a timid clerk who is a peeping Tom by night, a man striving to rewin his wife's love, an Amish farmer faced with viciousness, and a proper older woman turned thief, all find themselves entangled with the bank robbers as a peaceful weekend turns violent.

"Violent Saturday" does a great job of building up to the robbery. It gives us a glimpse of the characters and the planning for the job. However, the film loses steam after the robbery.
