What they share
Theyboth carry the paranoid, raw mood tags, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to True Confessions, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Grifters is
You run a dial-a-deck romance scam from a shoebox motel room. Then your mother’s three-card Monte crew parks outside and your new squeeze walks in with a suitcase full of bearer bonds. The money’s already spent before you remember you never asked where it came from. Frears punctures American hustle with iridescent wides and a moral zero.
