Invincible’s Ericson Core to Direct Indie Heist Film Youngstown Boys

Nick Martin June 13, 2011 Add a Comment

Ericson Core, Youngstown Boys

Did you know one of the famous bank robberies in the US occurred in Orange County?

Cinematographer and Invincible’s first-time director Ericson Core is set to helm the indie action crime movie Youngstown Boys about the heist which took place on 24 March 1972.

Amil Dinsio and his crew from Youngstown, Ohio were hoping to hit a Mother Lode of $30 Million that then-President Richard Nixon had a personal account at United California Bank. However, instead of Nixon’s Bank of America branch in San Clemente the burglars robbed the Laguna Niguel branch of the United Bank of California and made off with around $12 million, a world record at the time

Ken Hixon (City by the Sea and Welcome to the Rileys) wrote the most recent draft of the script.

The take occurred over weekend until just hours before the bank opened Monday morning.

They did an outstanding job of trying to make a clean getaway, but believe it or not, forgot to empty the dish washer in their rental condo before leaving. The gang’s fingerprints were found all over the dirty dishes. Their car with their robbery tools in the trunk was also found, and they were all jammed – seven of the eight boys were quickly caught but the getaway driver was able to flee the country and wasn’t found and arrested until 1980.

The Youngstown Boys film is set for a tentative 2013 release and no cast information yet, except Core is currently meeting with actors.

Watch a documentary on this heist on a TV show called Criminal Masterminds:
