(comedy, crime)
Freddy Benson, a con(fidence) man, lives off women by waking their compassion with shocking stories about his fake fate. One day in beautiful Beaumont sur Mer, he meets Lawrence Jamieson, who shares the same passion, works the rich ladies with the same scheme, but in quite a different league. With the knowledge of his profession, Freddy forces Lawrence to teach him high-society behaviour, so that he himself can earn a major living. When time comes to say goodbye, Freddy decides to stay a little longer. As there is no way two con men can work a town that small at the same time, Lawrence and Freddy agree on a settlement: The first one to extract $50.000 from a young female target wins, the other leaves town. The sum is no match for Lawrence, the age of the lady no match for Freddy. Let the games begin!

This film made an impression on me, even before I saw him. I was in a theater,
And a trailer from "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" wine. While a voice-over
Talked about the value of the films for the promotion of morality and civility, you saw
Caine and Martin walking along a beachfront smilingly since beneficently < br> Greetings to passersby. Then pushed Caine cotton candy in a while facing children
Martin pushed a woman to a shelf.

It is a great sequence, and have been used on the DVD with his own commentary
From director Frank Oz (that has never happened before?), But a little
Misleading. In fact, while men are scoundrels, that neither is very
Vil. Caine is Lawrence Jamieson is actually a little altruistic, as we find
, with a code of only having people who can afford to be taken, and
Finding ways to spend the money they are not totally selfish.
Martin's Freddy Benson is less disciplined and smallest of his time in the contras;
he will steal candy from a baby and tell you that it is for his poor sick Gram-Gram
trapped, but he is sympathetic, too, a little lower with the idea of how
Item is played at the highest level, but eager to learn.

The fact that you like these characters is a compliment to Caine and Martin
Just as director of Oz and the team of writers. Tone is everything with a
movie like this, and as Oz said in its commentary, which is so important in making the
Comedy work. He said that 1950 was going to feel in the photograph, I am
Guessing Hitchcock with "Catch a Thief" in mind. The big score by Miles Goodman
is strong enough to merit its own CD reissue, with an air of sophistication
Light buoys that the action on the screen. Most importantly,
Since much of the comedy comes from people taking advantage of each other,
have presented everything, so gossamer helps digest while
History a bad taste.

Martin shines in many scenes, especially when playing the idiot Ruprecht
Man-child, and when stuck in jail trying to remember the name of the man he believes can only come
to his rescue ( "James Lawrenceton ... no, wait, James
Jesterton .... no, no, this is definitely, um ...") I knew Martin could be fun,
And with the Except for "All Of Me" this is probably the best comic
Yield, but Caine is a revelation. A man straight, yes, but with
Delicado time and some clever characterizations that he draws a
Stock Exchange, as a psychiatrist with Germanic unusual ideas about healing
Lameness. You forget how good it is Caine comedy, despite its actions
In films like this, "Blame It On Rio," and "Without A Clue." Glenne Headly
It is a revelation as a woman trapped in the middle of Jamieson and Benson's
Intrigues, as good as their male counterparts, but say no
More.

Great players, great tone, but the fabric is the best we have this movie. It
A remake of a 1964 film "Bedtime Story", which joined
Marlon Brando and David Niven for what should have been a dream, but the team was flat instead.
This time, the script is aided by actors who not only can deliver
funny lines, but they are fun, and an end (according to Oz in its
Review, one worked over Several meetings with dinner long Martin)
is simply perfect. Last

, Oz has to be recognized. It was only their second shot not Muppet Movie
here, but the result in my opinion is one of the best comedies
nobody has never done. It manages to get the best from everyone, including the players
And cinematographer Michael Ballhaus (some stunning night shots of the French Rivera
sea that never tire of seeing), and offers a rare jewel
In a film, a laugh out loud-out comedy that leaves you with a warm feeling
Within.

Ian McDairmid Arthur plays the butler in the present, teamwork Oz
with him yet again. Almost this review entitled "Yoda and Palpatine In The French Riviera;"
Interestingly McDairmid plays a boy in "Scoundrels" who is really
level.
Everything clicked in this laugh out loud-out gem. Steve Martin and Michael Caine
are in top form as Freddy Benson and Lawrence Jamieson,
two men who agree that this city (on the French Mediterranean coast) is not big enough for
that the both of them. To solve the problem, which according to
One solution - the first man to swindle $ 50000 a
naive young woman arrives to stay. The competition draws the best of the same
Worse of cases, with Martin posing as a paraplegic and Caine as a psychiatrist
Desiring to help convince him, everything is in his head. Glenne Headly, as the White
of the contras, deserves special mention for his brilliant
Performance.

One of the strongest assets of "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" is that the
History is interesting enough, with its various twists and turns, which
Great work even without being funny. The laughs - and there
Many of them - are a sort of gut-wound bonus. The scene in which Caine
tests of the nerves in the legs of Martin must rank as one of the most
Uproarious in movie history. This one from director Frank Oz (incidentally
No slouch in the comedy department) is not to be missed.
