All Night Long has an ill-assorted group of women suddenly finding themselves with a pile of stolen money. And the dead body of a bank robber who expired in the convenience store they are in. As they try to clean up in various ways they contend with customers and police. But just as fortune seems to be smiling the rest of the manic bank gang turn up . . .

One of those films that just seems to work for me. Deft stylish direction. Changes of pace and mood which keep things bubbling along. Very funny and colourful.
