The TFAC Film Series continues on Tuesday, January 12 at Tryon Theatre and will feature The Sting.

The Sting follows a novice grifter and a seasoned con artist who join forces in 1936 to execute an elaborate revenge scheme against a ruthless mob boss. Notable for its intricate plot structure, witty tone, and clever twists, the film showcases the charismatic pairing of Paul Newman and Robert Redford.

It became a critical and commercial triumph, earning seven Academy Awards including Best Picture, and is celebrated for Marvin Hamlisch’s ragtime score, period-perfect design, and enduring reputation as one of cinema’s most entertaining caper stories.
