In today’s episode of The Discourse, host Mike DeAngelo sits down to talk about con man movies with director Benjamin Caron (“The Crown,” “Andor,” “Wallander”). The director is currently out promoting his film, “Sharper,” which follows multiple con men and women in New York City who are all in search of the perfect mark and the biggest take. The A24 film hits Apple TV+ on February 17th and stars Sebastian Stan, Julianne Moore, John Lithgow, Justice Smith, and Briana Middleton.
During the chat, Caron talks about his love of con man films and ultimately deciding to make “Sharper” his feature film debut due to the surprising nature of the script.
