Hard-as-nails Lily Dillon (Anjelica Huston) works as a swindler for dangerous bookie Bobo (Pat Hingle), probably the only man she fears. Arriving in Los Angeles on "business," Lily looks up her son, Roy (John Cusack), a small-time con artist content with paltry sleight-of-hand cheats. Roy's girlfriend, Myra (Annette Bening), looks like an All-American type but is a grifter looking to pull off another big-time con. The convergence of the three hustlers inevitably means trouble for all of them.

De eerste Amerikaanse film van de Britse regisseur Stephen Frears is een sombere film noir over een bizarre liefdesdriehoek tussen een jonge, nogal naïeve oplichter (Cusack), zijn lief (Bening), die ook een oplichter blijkt maar verre van naïef, en zijn jonge moeder (Huston), ook al oplichter en gevaarlijk verliefd op haar zoon. Het is een film waarin iedereen iedereen wantrouwt en bedriegt, een schaduwrijk oedipaal misdaaddrama gebaseerd op werk van de recent herontdekte misdaadauteur Jim Thompson. Het scenario van deze door Martin Scorsese geproduceerde film werd verzorgd door Donald E. Westlake.

Lilly Dillon, a striking platinum blonde, places large bets on long-shot horses at Palomas Downs racetrack in New Mexico. After the races, she telephones Irv, an accountant who works for Lilly’s bookkeeper boss, Bobo Justus. Irv relays Bobo’s instructions for Lilly to continue on to La Jolla, California. Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, twenty-five-year old Roy Dillon is caught using a sleight of hand trick to shortchange a bartender. The bartender slugs him in the abdomen with a baseball bat, and Roy stumbles outside. Elsewhere, Myra Langtry, Roy’s girl friend of two months, uses her sex appeal to seduce a jeweler after he determines her diamond bracelet is a fake. Roy returns to his apartment and dreams about the man who taught him how to “grift,” or swindle money from easy targets, when he left home at seventeen. Myra arrives, and she and Roy make love. In the morning, Lilly Dillon, Roy’s estranged mother, shows up at his apartment. Roy greets her coolly, and Lilly responds by kissing him

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: On the surface, The Grifters feels like it should opt for Ocean’s 11-style antics, but instead, it prefers semi-Oedipal melodrama. These choices don’t work especially well and they make the movie drag. Starring Anjelica Huston, John Cusack. Lionsgate, $9.99, 3/3/2015.
