Buster (1988)

Kicking off in London, 1963, it tells the story of Buster Edwards, one of the fifteen men involved in the Great Train Robbery, something that still gets spoken about in Britain today. For the benefit of anyone not familiar with the incident, it involved a Royal Mail train carrying a HUGE amount of cash.
Musician Phil Collins stars as the titular crook. The script presents him as a lovable rogue, as a "lucky" petty thief, which is a characteristic trait that Collins chennels successfully. His wife is played by Julie Walters.
The planning phase of the story goes by fast, as does the robbery, meaning a large portion of the film focuses on life on the run and, sadly, that part can feel a little dull at times. But if you're a fan of the one-time Genesis front-man, then there's certainly enough Phil to keep you entertained.
