Although "The Film-Flam Man" precedes "Smokey and the Bandit" by ten years, that is the type film I would identify this with. It is definitely lively, with grifting being the main subject that drives things forward. In addition, like the "Smokey" movies, there are car chases, moonshine, and plenty of frustrated cops. George C. Scott's character is what lifts "The Film-Flam Man" to slightly above average. The scams are definitely the best part of the film, with Michael Sarrazin's love interest and the car chases filling the remaining time between cons. Although dated, the "Flim-Flam Man" is watchable for Scott's performance alone. - MERK
