Get ready to run the ultimate con. In this episode, we dive into the slick, twist-filled world of The Sting — the 1973 classic that paired Paul Newman and Robert Redford for one of Hollywood’s coolest capers. We’ll unpack how George Roy Hill’s direction, Marvin Hamlisch’s ragtime score, and that legendary twist ending turned a stylish period piece into a Best Picture winner. From the film’s jazzy Depression-era setting to the irresistible chemistry between its stars, we’re breaking down what makes The Sting a timeless grift that still plays perfectly over 50 years later.
