Synopsis

Set on the French Riviera, 'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels' follows the antics of two con men: the suave and sophisticated Lawrence Jameson and the crass, small-time hustler Freddy Benson. Lawrence has built a lucrative career swindling wealthy women, while Freddy employs less refined tactics to con people out of their money. When the two meet, they initially clash but eventually form a partnership to target wealthy heiress Christine Colgate. However, their alliance quickly turns into a rivalry as they compete to outwit each other and win Christine's fortune. As the stakes rise, the con men find themselves in increasingly absurd situations, leading to unexpected twists and a surprising conclusion.
