Burglar (1987)

Description

Ex-con Bernice Rhodenburr (Whoopi Goldberg) is tough, smart, funny - and in one helluva mess. A double-dealing cop (G.W. Bailey) is blackmailing her and wants $20,000 to keep quiet. The best way Bernice can raise the cash? Turn "Burgler" for one last heist...which regrettably ends in murder. Goldberg is the ideal laugh stealer at the heart of this comic mystery, as Bernice tears San Francisco apart to find the real killer - before the city's finest find her. Director Hugh Wilson ("The First Wives Club'" "Police Academy") casts for laughs (Bob Goldthwait, John Goodman, Anne DeSalvo, Lesley Ann Warren), ensuring you'll have a great "crime" at the movies!
