Movies with the Meadows: Spain in the Sixties | Atraco a las tres

"Atraco a las tres (Robbery at Three O’Clock)," 1962
Directed by José María Forqué

In honor of the Meadows Museum’s sixtieth anniversary, Movies with the Meadows will present three films from the decade of its founding, the 1960s. These films, whether drama, comedy, or satire, capture the spirit of the decade in Spain.

José María Forqué’s "Atraco a las tres" is considered one of the best Spanish comedy films of all time. Fed up with the new director of the bank where he works, Galindo convinces his fellow employees to plan a perfect robbery in their own branch. They prepare everything carefully, but things take a turn when real robbers show up before they can execute their plan.

Movies with the Meadows is proudly presented in collaboration with Dallas Film. While not every film in the series has an MPAA rating, all are intended for mature audiences only.
