A seasoned grifter, Bokky, welcomes a neophyte into his loose-knit clan of peripatetic Irish-American scam artists, who, in the manner of modern-day snake oil salesmen, make a living cheating small-town rubes across the rural South. But a change of heart is in store for Bokky after he falls in love with a woman he defrauded. An atmospheric, languid directorial debut from "Twister" cinematographer Green. [More]

Eastwood's longtime lenser Jack Green makes a decent feature debut with a well-acted comedy-adventure that in its good moments recalls such classics as The Sting and The Grifters.

Interesting slice-of-life about a deliberately little-known pocket of American culture.

I was disappointed that it couldn't follow its genuinely good and original first half with a more interesting coda.
