Robert Redford and Paul Newman star in this action-packed comedy-caper
as two con men who join forces to get revenge on a ruthless crime lord who murdered their friend. Johnny
Hooker (Redford) and Henry Gondorff (Newman) set about implementing an elaborate
scheme, one so crafty that crime boss Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw) won't even
know he's been swindled. However, as their big con unfolds, things don't go as
planned. Winner of seven Academy Awards,
including Best Picture, Director and Original Screenplay. (USA, 1973, 129 mins, PG, English | Dir. George Roy Hill)
