Plunkett And Macleane

From director Jake Scott comes Plunkett & Macleane, the action-packed tale of two highwaymen in 18th Century England who form an unlikely alliance, starring Trainspotting's Robert Carlyle and Jonny Lee Miller.

After meeting in prison in the wake of a botched grave robbery, two strangers from different echelons of English society, scheming lowlife William Plunkett (Carlyle, The Full Monty) and gentleman-debtor Capt. James Macleane (Lee Miller, Hackers), decide to join forces. The two become highwaymen and set out to steal their way to a life of leisure. But as their infamy increases, Macleane falls for the beautiful Lady Rebecca (Liv Tyler, The Lord of the Rings), and begins to wonder if he should go straight.
