It's 1973. We're in the middle of the New Hollywood era, when movies tended to be more uncoventional and often darker. However, some movies are still all-around fun. The Sting, an Academy Award-winning caper movie featuring Paul Newman and Robert Redford, dives into the underworld of the 1930s with effortless skill. Two con men attempt to take revenge on a crime boss by swindling him out of his money, and the audience is along for the ride.
What The Sting offers offers casual move fans who have always meant to watch classic movies: stylish suits, clever cons, card sharks, a smart script, and plenty of "The Entertainer."
