About the Show
Based on the popular 1988 film, two con men—the cultivated and suave Lawrence and small time American thief Freddy—soon find out that the French Riviera isn't big enough for the both of them. They agree on a settlement: the first one who manages to get $50,000 from a young female target, heiress Christine Colgate, will get to stay and the other will leave.
