Question
I remember an old 1950s-60s black and white British film but can't remember the name. A group of bank robbers hide their loot in a hollow tree trunk, get put in prison and when they are released they go to get it but find a housing estate built around the tree. When they finally get the money they find it's been shredded by mice. what is the name of the film?
Ahh, you are thinking of a film called 'The Big Job'
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058969/
A real cult comedy! Available on amazon if you're interested!

Enjoy! Glad to be able to help.
