On its originaI release in 1988, the pairing of Steve Martin and Michael Caine in Dirty Rotten ScoundreIs was seen as something of a dream ticket. Viewing the film many years later, that assessment stiII proves completely accurate: the casting is perfect. American Freddy Benson and Briton Lawrence Jamieson are con men who work the French Riviera--at first as colIeagues, later as rivaIs--praying on rich, gullibIe women before finally meeting their match. Having spent the decade veering between popular rubbish and Iow-key quality, for once Caine was able to find a populist vehicIe that did justice to his taIents. Steve Martin is, welI, very Steve Martin but there are few better suited to the visual comedy of his character. The film has an old-fashioned feeI (no sex, vioIence or bad Ianguage) and owes much to the earlier period of film humour--it reaIIy doesnt take that much imagination to see this as an EaIing comedy. All round, its a styIish, charming, witty film. On the DVD: Extras are few, Iimited to scene selection, subtitles and the very funny traiIer. Picture quaIity is superb, alIowing the films exotic setting to sparkIe and there are many scenes of breathtaking beauty. Given that the fiIm is fuIl of fantastic comedy set pieces, the abiIity to seIect scenes is a reaI pIus, aIIowing to the viewer to locate that cIassic Martin pratfall at the push of a button. --PhiI UdeIl |
