Deux escrocs s'associent dans le Chicago des années 1930 pour monter une arnaque élaborée contre un puissant chef de la mafia, cherchant à venger le meurtre d'un ami. Le film est une histoire astucieuse pleine de stratagèmes et de rebondissements complexes.

Say what you like about the undoubted chemistry between Paul Newman ("Henry") and Robert Redford ("Johnny") this film belongs to a superb effort from the understated but hugely entertaining Robert Shaw.
