Gangster's Briefcases either contain weapons or banknotes. No one ever got coins at a robbery.
Briefcases are designed to hold exactly three rows of banknotes. As if it had power by itself money likes to be sorted in nice packs and rows, even if it had been thrown into the briefcase by a terrified cashier at a bank.
When you use a movie taxi don't ever give any change. Drivers won't know what to do with it. Just say "thank you" when you pay a bill, reach into your pocket without looking, take out whatever note is in it - it will just fit.
Same is true in restaurants. Checks are always designed to be 15 percent under the sum the male customer has in his hands first.
