The Grifters
🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
A stylish neo-noir crime caper. A group of con artists all playing their own game, but who comes out on top? Three absolutely cool & sleek performances, orchestrated by the always reliable Stephen Frears. A clever script adds to the excitement. All of this makes for a pretty great film.

#TheGrifters came out after a (not "the) #SavingsAndLoan (manufactured) crisis and used that indirectly in its depiction of greed and the "conned".
It's relevant in this world of #BernieMadoff, #crypto and #NFT's, #Enron, #StockMarkets, #TooBigToFail, all the other cons and con artists we know and acknowledge as such, and all those very many others that are still considered legitimate.
As history proves, the bigger the con, the more people believe and want to get taken...
It's been a long time since I've seen it, but it was a frequent watch for me back in the 90's.
I'm now craving a broiled hothouse tomato under a generous slice of ripe cheese...

The #trailer is all wrong, musically and tonally:
#link: https://www.criterionchannel.com/the-grifters/videos/the-grifters-trailer
#TheGrifters, 1990, #DirectedBy #StephenFrears and starring #JohnCusack, #AnjelicaHuston, and #AnnetteBenning is a great #con #hustler #oedipal #noir, even better than the great #HouseOfGames, 1987 (#DirectedBy #Trumper #DavidMamet 🤮)
It has a line that applies to literally every #SiliconValley #VentureCapitalist and #tech #CEO since its release:
"They were making money when everybody was making money. They think that means they're smart."
