    'The Brink's Job' crew was abuzz when $2 million in cash was brought to the set. Prop master Barry Bedig was literally born into the biz. Yet despite being the son of storied special effects man Sass Bedig ("The Godfather," "Bullitt," "The French Connection"), Barry's youth was largely unaffected by Tinseltown's glare. Infrequent studio visits with Dad produced understated memories. "I got to ride Roy Rogers' horse Trigger once," he deadpans. Obtaining union status at 25 in 1964 at 20 th Century Fox after a stint in the U.S. Navy, Bedig was one of the youngest prop masters in the history of IATSE Local 44, having gained the prerequisite 2,000 hours for membership, then passed the daunting written exam.
