Another Day in Paradise
A vendingmachine robbery by small time thief and drug addict Bobbie (Vincent Kartheiser) goes badly awry, and his buddies contact street-wise burglar and part time druggie Mel (James Woods) to spot him up.Recognizing that a kindred soul, Mel befriends Bobbie and his girlfriend Rosie (Natasha Gregson Wagner), encouraging them to join him and his long suffering girlfriend Sid (Melanie Griffith) to a drug robbery which should set them up for life. The seemingly simple prosecution is a excellent victory, but the sale of the medication afterward fails badly, and Mel and Bobbie have been shot.The four take refuge with the Reverend, who charges them half their haul from the prosecution to look after them. In a desperate attempt to recoup their losses, Mel involves the crew in a devastating, ill-advised jewellery prosecution, plus so they get caught up.
