The Swindlers (Los tramposos)
Paco and Virgilio are two good-for-nothings who live off the fruits of their crafty swindling schemes, until love forces them to lead an honest existence. Honest life, however, proves to be less straightforward than expected.

Starring an unforgettable cast made up of the best comedians in Spanish cinema, The Swindlers portrays a memorable fresco of the 1950s Madrid picaresque and has become one of the all-time Spanish classics.

Selected by Pedro Almodóvar.
