High Heels and Low Lifes

High Heels and Low Lifes is a flimsy but rather funny crime comedy about two friends, the nurse Shannon and the actress Frances, who overhear a phone conversation between a girl and her boyfriend Danny, who happens to be in the middle of carrying out a large-scale bank robbery. The girls contact the police, who have no time for that sort of nonsense. When they hear about the heist the next day, they decide to punish the robbers in their own way and profit from it themselves. They intend to blackmail them.

The two girls need all the cunning and quick wits they can muster, for their chosen victims are some rock-hard types who do not shy away from murder. The girls do have the advantage, however, that the bank robbers have not the faintest idea that the blackmailers are two nice girls and not trigger-happy thugs like themselves.
