Lucky Number Slevin
Starring Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Lucy Liu, Ben Kingsley, with Stanley Tucci
2006
This movie is organized around the plot of a con, the Kansas City Shuffle. Rival gangs and individuals have their stories which compete for survival, and the attention of the viewer. The resulting multi-layered product is pure genius show casing much of Hollywood's finest.
This movie is so finely done and so masterfully complex it is worth seeing every April 1, not just this year. That is, until they come up with the 'Oklahoma City Shuffle'.
