A Man, a Woman, and a Bank, also known as A Very Big Withdraw, is a 1979 Canadian comedy crime film directed by Noel Black, and starring Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams and Paul Mazursky. The film was partially funded by McNichol, a production company formed by teenage actress Kristy McNichol, her manager-mother Carollyne and their representatives. This is the only film the McNichol team produced.
