CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Gondorff's (Paul Newman) and Hooker's (Robert Redford) big con ends with a big surprise.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Four years after setting box offices ablaze in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Paul Newman, Robert Redford, and director George Roy Hill re-teamed with similar success for The Sting. Redford plays Depression-era confidence trickster Johnny Hooker, whose friend and mentor Luther Coleman (Robert Earl Jones) is murdered by racketeer/gambler Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw). Hoping to avenge Luther's death, Johnny begins planning a "sting" -- an elaborate scam -- to destroy Lonnegan. He enlists the aid of "the greatest con artist of them all," Henry Gondorff (Paul Newman), who pulls himself out of a drunken stupor and rises to the occasion. Hooker and Gondorff gather together an impressive array of con men, all of whom despise Lonnegan and wish to settle accounts on behalf of Luther. The twists and surprises that follow are too complex to relate in detail -- suffice to say that you can't cheat an honest man, and that you shouldn't accept everything at face value. The Sting became one of the biggest hits of the early '70s; grossing 68.5 million dollars during its first run, the film also picked up seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Adapted Score for Marvin Hamlisch's unforgettable setting of Scott Joplin's ragtime music.

I'm not ashamed to say I was 100% fooled by the gunshots. This was a masterpiece.
I realized at first sight that they were not dead, because Redford's back does not bleed, and Newman's wound does not spread the blood. I apologise for my shaky English
@Giovanni. You make sense, in real life, Redford would have had bullet holes in the back of his jacket.
No way. The con fails because the mark needed to be a shooter in order to make sense. The mark had nothing to do with the murders therefore he’s not obligated to leave and why did he leave and only him. With both the con artist losers dead the mark should have and would have just walked behind the counter and got the money. Now if the mark had been the shooter then he would have gladly left the 500k behind to walk free.
I realized a couple seconds after the gunplay that it was all part of the scam, only because I thought there was no way the movie could end that darkly.
Yes, it is. A period piece, great story, pacing, sets, costumes, sound track.
What a terrific movie. Even all these years later, it is THE best con-film, and one of the greatest movies of all time. WHAT a twist!
@Jim McCracken Yes, just as they shouldn't have made sequel of "Gone with the Wind". Esp. with a different author, not at all as good.
@Jim McCracken You watched " The Hot Rock " ? If not , then , you should . Another GEM .
'Nueve Reinas' ('Nine Queens') is a pretty great con film too.
house of games is pretty good. try it.
Yes, it is. A period piece, great story, pacing, costumes, sound track
Great con. They got the cop, the gangster and the audience all in one moment.
Perfectly done, too, because of Butch and Sundance years before. Everyone in the audience was thinking, "Not Again!"
Yep, had me fooled the first time I watchee it. Watched this right after watching The Great Gatsby, & my first thought was "why does Robert Redford always seem to keep dying in these movies?"
Had me fooled because movies at this time weren't afraid to kill off the leads.
probably the best movie I ever saw
@@SenorPlaid Never thought of that. That makes it that more special.👍
Great movie. I've lost count how often I've watched over the past 48 years and it still holds up after all this time.
I just watched it clean through for the first time last night after seeing a few clips on RUclips. They really don’t make movies like that anymore. Pure escape, no preaching, well written, acted and directed.
Fantastic movie
Right on. I'm 52 and saw this aged like 10 and it is still my favourite movie ever.
Entertaining movie but think how can you open a betting shop without local authority permission ? How can you stop the general public from coming in.
@@DrMontague The movie setting is 1936, three years after the end of Prohibition. It was an illegal, private, secret betting parlor, and they only let in whoever they wanted.
Three of the greatest actors of all time, Newman, Redford and Shaw. They don't make them like these guys any more.
The actor who played the FBI Agent set up the ending by conning the audience with his great cameo performance.
Special shout to the head honcho of the “FBI” to go from ground leader to jovial accomplice in less than a minute takes real talent
Seeing this movie the first time on big screen with a crowd full of people was a once in a lifetime experience. The audience reaction was actually a big part of the movie's energy.
What was the reaction like? I bet it was awesome..
🎉❤
@@infinity4evr I was 14 when I saw it at the theater. Everybody in the entire theater was like; "WTF?! WTF?! WTF?!" with a huge smile on our faces. It's been on my top 10 list ever since then. And top 5 for many many years.
Such a brilliantly written and performed film. 500 years from now I'm sure people will still be watching and enjoying this film.
One of the best films. My personal favorite
The card scene on the train was the best .... "four jacks....you owe me fifteen grand pal". Robert Shaw was the perfect actor to play the criminal banker.
@jack brandt But it's the wild impossibility of it that makes it such an audaciously brilliant scene !
Like this last scene, in 'reality' a man like Lonnegan wouldn't give a toss about two men being shot, he'd have heavies waiting outside just in case a problem arose who'd wade in, bribe or threaten the 'Feds', and grab the money back !
@jack brandt Not laughable at all. He's a cheat and routinely uses that cheat as one of his goons packs the deck. It doesn't take oo long for word to get around by those he's cheated.
Never bet it all unless you have the nut ;)
@@IHateRUclipsHandles615 Or nuts??
@@ysgol3 It's a movie for entertainment purposes...
We thought we were watching Redord and Newman conning Lonnigan, but the whole time we were watching the filmakers conning us... lol. What a great, great movie with an excellent twist.

That was a fake shop they setup ,everything was fake even people@@DrMontague
Great twist in one of the best movies of all time
theactioneffect a good movie. But that's that.
Rg
Saw it coming a mile away
Greedy D good for you
Greedy D Do you want a gold star?
Just saw this Movie, cracked a genuine smile when Paul Newman looked at Robert and smiles
47 years later this movie still puts a smile on my face.
It's been my favorite ever since I first saw it❤️❤️❤️❤️ It never gets old...that's how great it is
When cars cut in front of me. I say Oh there are giving me the " Shut out" @@sallydaniel1023
The Sting and Butch Cassidy are two of the classics
It's such a shame they never made another movie together.
Think you used enough dynamite there Butch?
Bffs
And Doc Hudson
Every scene, every thread in this entire movie leads us to this moment. Perfect storytelling.
One of the best climax's in movie history. A screenplay masterpiece.
Robert Shaw sells anger so well I always feel bad for Lonnegan in the end! 🤣🤣
I still remember with fondness how this sting moment spurred the large audience of the theatre in Minneapolis into a one loud yell. It totally took me by surprise. Such a great moment in the theatre.
As a young man, I saw this film 8 times and just marveled at the absolutely great story and film that fooled me all the way to the end! One of the greatest movies of all time!
Entertaining movie but think how can you open a betting shop without local authority permission ? How can you stop the general public from coming in.
Conned Lonnegan... and the audience. Magnificent movie.
I do not get it. How was the audience conned?
@@georgepierson4920 We thought they were both shot!
@@colleen4ever oh
@@georgepierson4920 .... you had to be there
@@georgepierson4920 He conned Lonnigan twice. First time was at the poker game on the train and the second time was this. The way that this film conned us as viewers were, was when they both got shot and Lonnigan and the other cop was running out of there, they had us believe that the film was indeed over.
I saw it in the theater when it was released, what a fantastic movie! Got me hook, line and sinker, did not see the ending coming.
Oh yes, me too.
There is a hint, when Gondorf says something about sorting out the Snyder problem when he's made aware of it, but it was so brief and casual a moment that I, like you and millions of others, didn't pick up anything from it.
@@ysgol3 What's the Snyder problem ( am no American )
@@zainulzainul1880 Snyder was legit law enforcement and could have shut the whole operation down. Charles Durning played bumbling idiots, but the guy was a legit war hero from WWII.
@@ysgol3 The biggest hint is when Redford puts the blood caps in his mouth before leaving Salino's apartment.
@@Islam4Europeans Absolutely. I NEVER miss that........now.
Great lines for great actors…..”Four Jacks!” and “But it’s close!” Outstanding talent and brilliant teamwork throughout this production.
I've been going to the movies for a long time, and that's my favorite movie of all time.
Is it because it has such a warm heart all through, and their mischief is so jovial and playful, instead of boring cold calculating? Creative is the word!
A movie MASTERPIECE. Still good after all these years.
I found a currency inflation calculator
in 1936, 500,000 dollars would be 9.2 million by today's standards
does the mob pay taxes?
I guess the splits was a good chunk of change for everybody back then
OsamaBinLooney They weren’t the mob . They were Confidential men
@@OsamaBinLooney How do you think the Feds got Al Capone
Probably more like 20 million in buying power
This two(Redford and Newman) are unbelievably cute together.Their smile is like an angel's,and I like how Redford's character is not much younger than Newman's,yet both as Hooker or as Sundance he is The Kid.
Especially considering that Newman is 11 years older than Redford. If he had
lived, Paul would be 92.
Loretta. Yes, and it is Redford's sun in Virgo: Purity of heart, a follower/supporter rather than a leader, introverted negative sign.
Loretta P. In real life Paul Newman was 11 years older as was born in 1925 and and Redford in 1936
Robert Shaw what a great actor .this was one brilliant movie 🎥
Newman & Redford= class. The show is classic!
Great flic.....think I saw it half a dozen times at the drive in, summer of '73......Charles Durning, the bunko cop from Joliet, was an 18 year old rifleman on D Day....landed on Omaha beach......was machine gunned and bayonetted twice during his service in the European theater....one of the survivors of the Malmady massacre.......RIP Charles Durning......
wow ... and he was a professional ballroom dance teacher ! Mr. Durning was the true and very rare Renaissance man ... what a prolific life !
Hey Gorilla, movie came out at Christmas, ya follow ??
Close. He was 21 on D Day, as he was born in Feb.'23. My uncle, Lloyd, was 18 and lay on the beach for four hours until medics got to him. Limped the rest of his life, until he died in '93.
@@Dance_of_a_tree_called_life Charles Durning , a survivor of the Malamardy Massa cre ?
@@woodsie5474 hes a hero
Two iconic actors whose enduring close friendship lent itself to the screen ..the ultimate partnership shown by the sting and butch Cassidy..two timeless classics 😆
A great ending from one of the greatest movies of all time! Thank you for posting it!
I love it when Robert Redford said to Paul Newman "You're right, it's not enough. (Newman frowns)
But it's close!" LOL!
Great script, great directing, great acting. This is what you end up with.
These people are smart!! What a play Mr. Newman and Mr. Redford, Bravo!!!!
Remember my dad making me watch this with him and I can still remember the joy in my heart when I realised what the twist/sting was and that Newman and Redford's characters had made it.
lol you too? I watched it with my dad too and when redford agreed to setup his friends I was like NOOO!. Haha my dad was over there like "just wait".
Newman and Redford made a great pair on-screen TWICE.
Such an amazing scene! One of the greatest scenes in one of the greatest films ever made!!
Entertaining movie but think how can you open a betting shop without local authority permission ? How can you stop the general public from coming in.
The best from this movie was the music. Without "The Sting", very few people would know about Scott Joplin. Thank you Marvin Hamlish for rediscover this great music. You are a genius. 🎶
The sting was on the folks in the movie theater. Shocked 'em.
Shaw was outstanding an some of the plays he wrote simply amazing
One of my top ten favorite movies.
And they didn’t use bad language.
Love this movie. No toilet mouths, just good story and good acting.
Every time I hear the song " THE ENTERTAINER " it makes me feel young again , like when the movie came out !
superb ending of a movie.
My late father worked in cinemas in London when this was first released, they ran it for two weeks, I never once saw it right through until 2019, 46 years later.
I love Newman and Redford. They and Butch and Sundance and also Gondorff and Hooker are inseparable to me. The sting or con was on us and we weren't even in the movie!
I LOVE this movie.
The best part of the finish of this great movie was the con on the audience. Four years after Butch & Sandance, which everyone loved, and in the Sting, which everyone loved, everyone int he audience is going, "NOT AGAIN!"
I do not get it. How was the audience conned?
@@georgepierson4920 he just explained it, read again
@@georgepierson4920 For a moment, the audience thought the two had the same fate the had in Butch Cassidy, shot and dead.
My favorite movie of all time. Brilliant ending👍
This movie is my #1 on first watch movies...sixth sense is in a distant 2nd but this movie was the first time the writers truly got me...a well crafted movie all around
Part of the reason the ending was so brilliantly effective was I think that they both died as Butch and Sundance.
I remember seeing the film in the cinema and still remember the horrified silence followed by cheers and laughter of joy and relief. Now if you can provoke THAT reaction in a film, you're on to a winner !
Jullianbreamjohnwilliamsspanishgittar
@Brian W 'As' not 'In'. LOL.
The Sting stung me!
The thing I like the most about this movie is that the audience was conned by the film as well with various plot twists.
Paul Newman and Robert Redford are partner in heaven, just perfect. Can't name any better duo than both.
Thank God McQueen didn't make it as Sundance Kid, otherwise we would not get those 2 brilliant movies, Butch Cassidy and this movie, The Sting.
Redford: "I'm not dead yet..."
@@ericdew2021 Lol, no. What I meant is that they are such a superb duo in their movies, like a 'partner in heaven'. 'Heaven' in term of perfectness, fantastic duo. Not referring to death or something like that. Sorry if I confused you.
The best con movie of all time.
How can you not love The Sting? There is not one thing that is wrong with it. This was the very first movie I ever saw in a movie theatre in 1973 and it remains my standard for gauging all other movies.
Your right its not enough but its close
Lonnegan changed his name to Quint and buys a boat he named Orca.
But, how did he buy the boat when lots of his money was left at "Shaws Place" ??
@@dennisandry1632 He cheated at a few more poker games. Wasn't that how he got his money in the first place?
Henry had that same smug, snotty attitude as Hoopah! That is why Quint hated Hoopah!!!!!!!
@@shrapnel77 Sometimes that shark, he looks right into ya. Right into your eyes. Y'know the thing about a shark, he's got... lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'... until he bites ya. And those black eyes roll over white, and then... oh, then you hear that terrible high-pitch screamin', the ocean turns red, and in spite of all the poundin' and the hollerin', they all come in and they rip you to pieces!
@@situated4 Thanks for posting this!
Robert Shaw stars in two of my top 5 favorite movies, this one and Jaws.
What're your other 3? Great choice in those two for sure!
I just watched this movie for the first time today. This movie had me hook line and sinker. What a great classic movie this is.
always wondered what Lonnegan's reaction was like after discovering he'd been conned. great great movie
He asked for a bigger boat.
Thought his name was Hanegan.....:)
both of them have such great smiles and laughs, the director basically told them flash your teeth as many times as possible, dont worry about the situation. :)
Never tired to watch this movie.
Awesome!
The Sting, The Great Waldo Pepper, 3 Days of the Condor and Sneakers are among the most original and entertaining movies ever made. Well done Robert Redford.
and The Natural ;)
@@OldFellaDave Absolutely, I knew I left out a biggie. Even though it was a small part, he was great in A Bridge Too Far as well.
I wish I could see this again for the first time
i really loved Paul Newman, a rare specimen of human class antihero
Hard to top, one of the finest things put to film ever
Once a man said, "one is a very happy who has not seen this movie yet. Because one will have that excitement from now
Wise words
I got the piano sheet music from The Sting and learned several of the ragtime songs played throughout this movie when I was a child, and I've played them my entire life. I am 59 now and I finally watched this movie yesterday. It was absolutely wonderful.
Thanks such a lot for this! I wish it was the whole movie, but this is my favorite scene in it so I love it! Newman and Redford made an unbeatable team in every way. Clooney and Pitt couldn't measure up.
You're right. Some things just can't be made any better than the best.
One of the top movies ever made!
It took me a long time to understand the plot in detail. The twist with the feds was marvelous. We were meant to be as clueless as Lonnigan. A great audience con.
I remember the moan in the audience when I saw this in the theater in 1973 - we all were conned beautifully. Terrific movie and stellar acting.
Scène finale magistrale ! Chef d'oeuvre : ces films qui ont fait le cinéma !
Newman and Redford!!!
LLP
The con men were very creative back then. Now It's just some guy on the phone who says he's with the IRS and you should send him money asap or else.
I remember watching this scene with my dad and we both just looked at each other and started laughing at the end😂
Possibly the most perfect screenplay ever written.
As they clean up the 'betting parlor' and announce where the spoils will be divided, they remember Luther's widow,: one of the men takes money to her, as well...Remember it is Luther getting pushed out a window early in the movie - that sets the whole series of events in motion, including the 'sting' of Doyle Loneghan.
One of the best movie ending of all time probably
1:11 BUT MAH MUNNIES IN THARE!!!!!
And so are a couple of dead guys too, ya can;t get mixed up in that!
You don’t understand, there’s a half a million dolla’s in there!
Yeah. Given the amount of time that Shaw spent around Lough Mask in County Galway it's hard to understand why his Irish accent is one of the worst ever captured on film.
Sounded exactly like Quint when he screamed that line. Robert Shaw's performance in this movie is why we have Quint.
Someone could try to remake this movie, but you know that while they may get all the technical details right, it will still fall flat because of the magic, humour and mischievous fun Redford and Newman bring to their characters. Modern actors are all humorless nonames.
A classic con film that never goes out of style. 😎👌
the best movie ever!!!
What a pair of actors...Bob and Paul
But my money!!!!! :D . My favorite movie growing up.
The first time I saw this movie I was just as fooled as Snyder and Lonnegan in the last scene. Great con. A brutal sting.
Charles Durning, the guy who played Lt.Snyder, was Father Hubley on "Everybody Loves Raymond." Great actor.
He was also excellent in the role of Les Nichols, a widower who falls in love and wants to marry Dorothy Michaels who happens to actually be Michael Dorsey, a man disguised as a woman in TOOTSIE which has got to be one of the funniest movies ever.
This movie defines the word cool
Secretly brilliant part of this scene is that Newman and Redford starred in Butch & Sundance by the same director only 4 years earlier. And while we never see it, we can guess that they probably didn't make it out of Bolivia alive. So if you're the audience seeing it for the first time and you already saw B&S, you don't assume Newman and Redford walk away from this one.
Every line, look and gesture in this movie is perfection. A true work of art.
It's not enough. But it's close. Awesome
The first film to ever pull such a trick to even con the audience.
Also, Pete? From the Phoenix Foundation? What would MacGyver say about this?
Roger Kincaid con the audience? Any body with an iq of over 3 saw it coming and knew both weren’t dead
@Roger kincard Macgyver would say the episode Twice Stung which is the series response to the Sting. It was formidable but no where near the genius of this movie.
This is classic...great acting..well done ..up unto the smaller support roles..convincingly ...and what a gimmick Shaw beating Shaw...Robert Shaw as Lonnigan..threatening with tension in every scene...as a vieuwer you could easely relate to the motivation of all the participants in the sting, to get back at Lonnigan.
When I first saw the movie, I too was 100% fooled. When they sat up, their was a collective gasp then applause.
I love this movie so much!
First time I saw this clip, had me fooled.
That $500,000 that they got is about $11 million today.
Grew up with films like this. Makes you feel old when you realise only 2 people from the film are still alive.
I love movies I don't totally get until I've watched them a dozen times.
I admit they fooled me the first time I watched this. You too?
⬇
Same here!
They didn't get me, but only because I've seen a dozen movies that ripped this off. If I had seen this first, it would have.
@TurboKai: Not me, I figured it out pretty quick.
al dixon ..Yeah right,,and you’re one of them dude’s that brag about having a big one,and you really got a tiny pecker.
One of the weirdest endings of all time. A lot of us got fooled. But hey it’s pretty unique which makes it likable.
