Parallax View
Description by OLDIES.com:
Nat Harbin (Dan Duryea) and his gang, including the voluptuous Gladden (Jayne Mansfield), have fifteen minutes to rob the home of a fake spiritualist (Phoebe Mackay). Once they steal a valuable necklace from her safe, they go into hiding. As the heat -- and a crooked cop trying to get the necklace for himself -- closes in on them, tension builds between the crew. They need to get rid of the necklace, and fast.
