Con Artists

Anyone else remember this one? I’ve watched it a hundred times and it still cracks me up every single time. That scene where Michael Caine just goes to town on Martin while he’s forced to stay silent—honestly, it’s comedy gold. Such a legendary movie.

Oh well, nobody replied—no biggie. But just a heads-up: this movie is airing on ABC tonight and you SHOULD definitely check it out!

Don't worry about it; I can at least speak for myself and Me when I say we're definitely going to tune in. I'll probably pester at least two more people about it too. 🙂>

well that makes 5 of us!

can I get in on this?🙂

honestly one of the best con artist comedies out there...

One of my all-time favorite comedies... 👋

If Steve Martin is involved, you already know it’s going to be good. 👍

I actually enjoyed it. It’s a bit naive and didn't quite hit the comedic heights of L. A. Story, which I caught on TV the other night (has anyone else seen it?), but it was still a solid watch. I could probably go on at length about both films, but I really can't be bothered. 😬

😁 😁 😁 👍

Steve Martin's character is such a piece of work. Seriously, what a bottom-feeder—between that creepy old lady scam and the whole fake disability thing, just total trash...

That part where he gets pummeled is seriously hilarious. 👍

So, there was this one guy on the forum, used the handle Ruprecht, and he had that Steve Martin avatar—you know the one, where he’s wearing that little headband around his forehead... 😁

It was a good one, honestly. Really fun watch. And Michael Caine? Man, he’s just a legend. 👍 They make such a great couple.
