What they share
Theysit in Comedy / Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Sting, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Paper Moon is
A Depression-era grifter discovers his new silent partner is either genius or an orphan—history may never tell. They travel the backroads selling Bibles to the gullible while debating paternity like an ancient parlor game. One wonders if the con was on the marks or the audience.
