Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988) DVD

One's got a sophisticated, suave and debonair con act. The other's got... well, an act. Together, Steve Martin and Michael Caine are Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and they're absolutely ruining the Riviera in this wonderfully crafted, absolutely charming, classy and consistently amusing comedy.

Martin is Freddy Benson, a small-time con man sleazing his way through Europe on whatever handouts he can scam. Caine is Lawrence Jamieson, an impeccably dressed and high-minded artiste who thinks Freddy's giving him, and all con men, a bad name. At first, Lawrence agrees to help Freddy spruce up his stunts and his wardrobe. But when it becomes apparent that the Riviera isn't big enough for the both of them, they make a winner-takes-all wager over the fortune of a naïve American soap heiress (Glenne Headly): the first one to 'clean her out' can make the other clear out - and keep the Riviera and its unsuspecting tourists to himself!
