The Sting (1973)
10/10
Probably the most perfect movie ever made
10 September 2018
What happens when you combine two first-class actors in their prime, an awesome supporting cast, a musical score arranged/written by one of the best ever, amazing period costumes, an engaging, complex (but not too complex) story, and meticulous directing?

What happens is you get a movie like The Sting.

I think a lot of people forget about this multi-award-winning film. From the initial "gotcha" to the last "Aha! Now I get it!" scene, The Sting hooks you and won't let you get up and get popcorn. You'll miss something amazing.

We watched this recently with friends on a movie night, and everyone agreed that this is a great film. This is a group of folks who nearly always disagree on what a good picture is. So this is saying something.

Take my advice, and watch this for the first time...or watch it again if it's been a while. You won't regret it.
