The Sting
In a shocking twist ending, it was revealed that during the successful "sting" pulled on crime boss Lonnegan (Robert Shaw), a complex scam had been executed by a team of pickpocketers, con artists, and grifters. Hooker (Robert Redford) and Gondroff (Paul Newman) were masquerading as rivals the entire time. Both of their murders were faked, and even the federal agents were in on the scheme!
