Keep Your Eye On The Ball
In three-card monte, con artists use swift hand moves and constant patter to convince a sucker there’s a way to win. A magician, a theater professor, and a real-life grifter each describe how the monte isn’t just a crime; it’s street theater designed to keep its losers entertained. Produced by Sally Herships.
