Matchstick Men (2003)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Ridley Scott
Starring: Nicolas Cage, Sam Rockwell, Bruce McGill, Alison Lohman, Beth Grant, Bruce Altman, Jenny O'Hara, Steve Eastin
Alison Lohman is not Nicolas Cage's daugher, but part of a sting (with Sam Rockwell, Bruce Altman and probably others) to con Nicolas Cage out of his money. Years later, Nicolas Cage now has a real job as a carpet salesman, where he meets Alison again and they make up. Nicolas Cage then goes home to reveal that he has married again, this time to the cashier he kept going to at the supermarket. Plus Nicolas Cage's new wife is also pregnant.
Big Evil
Roy: I'm not ver good at being a father, all right? I barely get by just being me.
Trivia: Alison Lohman, who plays Nicolas Cage's teenage (14) daughter, is actually 24.

Answer: Angela was working with Frank the whole time, she wasn't actually his daughter. Roy's shrink (Dr. Klein) & Chuck Frechette (the money laundering guy) were in on the con as well.

If Chuck was also in on the con then why was Frank so beaten up? And why would they bring up the whole talk about the ashtray from the gift store and how the camera in there had seen Angela if Chuck was already supposed to know about it all?
Their whole plan was to get his vault password, how to get it? By making everything looks real. The death of Chuck -> Roy says he is the one who killed him -> His "daughter" is running because she is the main suspect -> Roy gives his password to the shrink so he can give it to his "daughter" That means Chuck, Frank, Angela, The fake police men, and the shrink are working together.
