Based on Timothy Ford's article published in Gear magazine and formerly titled "The Yankee Bandit", this recounts the life of charismatic charmer Eddie Dodson. His art deco furniture store on Melrose Avenue attracted Hollywood hipsters, but friends were shocked when he was identified as "The Yankee Bandit" in 1984, responsible for robbing 64 banks over nine months. On one afternoon, he robbed six banks in a matter of hours. After Dodson served a 12-year prison term, he became a caretaker for Jack Nicholson's Malibu home, living in his guesthouse. Then, he was arrested again in 1999 for robbing banks. After serving a three-year prison term, he died last February at the age of 54 of liver failure.
