Light and funny.

Zips along, at 1 hr 20 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1935: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

Con men Calvin Churchill and Clip McGurk know how to fix a horse-race or boxing match. Calvin wants to go straight and win back his estranged wife, but first the men must dodge a dogged IRS agent and bilk a bunch of aviation investors out of the backing boodle for a balloon excursion into the stratosphere.
