Synopsis
TWENTY BUCKS is the story of one $20 bill, from its birth at an ATM to its final shredding at the bank, and the lives it touches along the way. Among those passing the buck are a prophetic bag lady (Linda Hunt), an about-to-marry-rich working stiff (Brendan Fraser), a New Age witch (Gladys Knight), a struggling writer (Elisabeth Shue), a distracted cop (William H. Macy), a well-mannered stick-up artist (Christopher Lloyd) and a hot-headed con man (Steve Buscemi). And while they may be strangers to each other, they do have one thing in common. When they passed the buck, they never expected change.
