    Plssss help with these two movies
    If you can help me I will be infinitely indebted to you. I cannot remember the names of two movies.

    Movie No:1
    -----------
    Supposedly an oldish movie (it was B&W I think). Anyway, these people are in luna park kind of place and there is this woman there, a fortune teller. She tells these people's fates and each of them is in fact a short movie within this movie. Genre was kind of horror, suspense, thriller.

    Movie No:2
    ----------
    A robbery movie. Also funny, like Ocean's Eleven. The most important thing was through the end of the movie these dustmen come and mistakenly take the money bags thinking they're thrash.

    Movie number one sounds like the original movie for Tales from the Crypt, back in the 70's.

    Here's a possibility:

    No. 1 ~ Torture Garden (1967)
    Wikipedia synopsis:
    Five people visit a fairground sideshow run by the sinister Dr. Diabolo (Burgess Meredith). Having shown them a handful of haunted house-style attractions, he promises them a genuinely scary experience if they will pay extra. Their curiosity gets the better of them, and the small crowd follows him behind a curtain, where they each view their fate through the shears of the female deity Atropos (Clytie Jessop).
    In "Enoch", a greedy playboy takes advantage of his dying uncle and falls under the spell of a man-eating cat.
    In "Terror Over Hollywood", a Hollywood starlet discovers her co-stars are androids.
    In "Mr. Steinway", a possessed grand piano by the name of Euterpe becomes jealous of its owner's new lover and takes revenge.
    In "The Man Who Collected Poe", a Poe collector murders another collector over a prized possession he refuses to show him~only to find his fate with Edgar Allan Poe himself.

    This is in color, but I thought I'd give it a chance.
