synopsis
"The Dukes" is the wry comic tale of a down-and-out doo-wop band that takes a bumbling detour into burglary in the endless quest to make good on their dreams.

For when these middle-aged buddies are forced to become mid-life bandits--and think they've hit on a sure-fire plan for the score of a lifetime--it accidentally results in far greater pleasures than loot.
