Bedtime Story
is a classic 1964 comedy film starring Marlon Brando, David Niven, and Shirley Jones. The movie is about two rival con men on the French Riviera who compete to swindle a wealthy American soap heiress out of her fortune.
Key Information
Plot: The suave and sophisticated Lawrence Jameson (David Niven) operates on the French Riviera, conning wealthy women, while the caddish Freddy Benson (Marlon Brando) uses sob stories to trick women out of small amounts of money. When they meet, they declare a wager to see which of them can be the first to swindle vacationing heiress Janet Walker (Shirley Jones) out of $50,000.
Legacy: The film served as the basis for two subsequent remakes:
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988), starring Michael Caine and Steve Martin.
The Hustle (2019), a gender-swapped version starring Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson. |
