A Man, a Woman, and a Bank, also known as A Very Big Withdraw,[1] is a 1979 Canadian comedy crime film directed by Noel Black and starring Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams and Paul Mazursky.[1] The film was partially funded by McNichol, a production company formed by teenage actress Kristy McNichol, her manager-mother Carollyne and their representatives. This is the only film the McNichol team produced.

Plot[edit]

A thief, Reese Halperin, and his accomplice, computer expert Norman Barrie, devise a scheme to break into a Vancouver bank.

While carrying out the bank's blueprints, Reese is inadvertently photographed by Stacey Bishop, who is taking pictures for the bank's advertising campaign. Reese and Stacey meet, and, complicating the burglary somewhat, fall in love.
