About this product

Product Information

Hoping that box-office lighting might strike twice, George Roy Hill again joined forces with Paul Newman and Robert Redford, who star as con men Henry Gondorff and Johnny Hooker in THE STING. In the Chicago of the 1930s, Johnny's partner, Luther (Robert Earl Jones), is fatally wounded by a victim of one of their scams who turns out to be powerful syndicate boss Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw). Eager for revenge, Johnny takes a tip from his dying partner and seeks out mutual friend Gondorff, a consummate master of the long con. Gondorff rouses himself from his alcoholic inertia and agrees to help Johnny take down the despicable Lonnegan, conscripting an army of grifters ready to avenge their friend's death. The labyrinthine plot, which is stuffed with false leads, red herrings, and a double-cross-a-minute, involves a fake bookie joint, a very persistent FBI agent, a bunch of corrupt cops, and one shifty dame. An extremely entertaining film, the Oscar-winning film transcends the genre through the superb acting of the three leads, the keen attention to the re-creation of period detail, and a fiendishly intricate script that cons audiences completely. The wonderful score, which became immensely popular, featured Marvin Hamlisch's orchestral transcriptions of Scott Joplin's piano rags; the film led to a revival of interest in the composer. The film is one of the most entertaining films of the 1970s and lives up to its hype on repeat viewings.

See Chicago in the 1930's
This is one of the classic movies from the 70's. It takes place in Chicago in 1930 with Johnny Hooker being a con man and learning the ropes from Luther. Luther and Johnny hit a score and get a big bank rool. It turns out the guy they con'd is working for the Mob Boss. The Mob Boss feels they are striking against him and all heck breaks loose. A corrupt cop is ready to turn Hooker in unless he gets paid, so Hooker pays him - yes - with counterfit money! His training partner Luther doesn't make it. A hit is still out after Hooker. You will enjoy this classic movie and will love seeing Robert Redford!
