August 4, 2007A classic film set in depression-era america. Ryan and Tatum make a great pair of grifters. Some of their cons are hilarious. A nice period to visit.

December 29, 2007I love Tatum O'Neal! She is my favorite actress of all time! She did a great job in this movie. It's hard to believe she was as young as she was when she did this movie. She deserved the Oscar and the title of the youngest person ever to win an Oscar!
