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.

    Newman & Redford at their best!

    This classic movie made with Paul Newman and Robert Redford shows the chemistry between these two great actors. If you enjoyed Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, then this is another classic you must see. The humor, their charismatic personas, and their personalities shine through this entire film. A very entertaining movie for fans of these two great actors!

  • Too bad they don't make great movies

    You want clean movies this is it. I looked but couldn't find. A child could watch it, but probably would not understand all of it. I find I am watching it everyday. This did win best movie and 7 academy awards, just get it you won't be sorry.

  • You need this movie in your library!

    I have loved this movie since I saw as a teenager back in the day. I bought it so that my mom could enjoy it again. This was a really nice DVD and everybody should have this in there library of movies. Probably the best movie Redford and Newman ever made, okay Butch Cassidy was awesome too.
