Wednesday, December 10, 8:15 p.m. & Saturday, December 13, 12:00 p.m. | This multi-Academy Award–winner (including Best Picture and Best Director) reunites Robert Redford and Paul Newman four years after their hit BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID. The pair play small time grifters out to pull the Big Con. The nostalgic, Depression-era atmosphere and the use of Scott Joplin’s ragtime music add liveliness to this comic caper, as do standout performances by the rest of the cast, which includes Robert Shaw, Charles Durning, Eileen Brennan, Harold Gould, and Sally Kirkland.
