Professional Reviews

| : |

| More Information |
| Details: |
A story-hungry investigative reporter and a frenetic, garrulous small-time con trip down the well-worn path of comically mismatched, interracial buddies on the lam. Smelling a scoop, the reporter sets his pal up for a fall that lands him in jail--and downwind of a jailhouse plot to steal a stash of diamonds. Soon the innocent duo's on the run from the cops, the thieves, and Mobsters. |
