The credits on this film are by far the most incomprehensible I've ever seen. Often in film credits, sometimes an actor is credited by the character name as it appears in the script, but that name can be changed on the set, but the actor is still billed as the character name as it appeared in the script. One example of this is Al Eben in CITIZEN KANE, who is credited in press sheets as playing "Mike" (the character name as written in the script) but the actual character in the film is called "Solly."
TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN has a number of character names that I just can't identify from the film itself. Perhaps I'm missing the mention of the character names in the film but I have never figured out specifically who the following characters are: Jake, Al, Fred, Vince, Frank, and Joe Agneta. I assume they are fellow inmates/gang members but I cannot identify them based on their character names alone. I'm assuming that these were the character names in the script but that they went by different names in the film. If anyone can offer some info on who these characters specifically are in the film, I'd love to hear it.
