Hvor man kan se Storsvindleren
- Jacob O’Neal26. april 2026During the 90’s there was a glut of movies about politics. We had Murder At 1600, Dave, Shadow Conspiracy, Absolute Power, The American President and more. Eddie Murphy was going through a shift in his career. His long time association with Paramount had ended. His attempts to move away from comedy and action hadn’t gone over well with The Golden Child or Harlem Nights. He went over to Disney and signed on to the Jonathan Lynn directed The Distinguished Gentleman, a film about a Florida con man who realizes the ultimate con is politics. He gets elected to congress based on name recognition of a recently deceased congressman from his district. The movie was written by a former political speech writer who obviously had an understanding of the world of CONgress. The movie had some genuinely funny moments. Anyone who finds Murphy funny and miss R rated Eddie Murphy should at least watch this film. Anyone who wants to see a humorous expose of Washington should watch it. The film itself is not the greatest, but it will put a smile on your face and remind you that can’t spell Congress without Con.
