Full Plot Details

Set in the midwest of the depression-era, Paper Moon follows Moses Pray and Addie Loggins - one a con artist, the other, the young girl who's the daughter of a woman who's just passed away. The pair meet when 'Mose' stops by the sparsely-attended funeral in Kansas of a woman he once knew (we never see her). In attendance, is the woman's young daughter, Addie, whom Moses agrees to transport to St Joseph, Mo -- for money, of course. Mose - an inveterate hustler, has been working ostensibly as a representative of the Kansas Bible Company - who picks his marks from the obits, and tries to sell - at exorbitant prices - the decedents' spouse the custom bible they'd previously ordered. Wise beyond her years, Addie picks up on Moses' grift, and very quickly, she and Mose become a team. Traveling from town to town, making money in every dishonest way imaginable, and looking for the ultimate score. The colorful characters they meet along the way make the film all the more interesting. One in particular - Miss Trixie Delight - an exotic dancer who Mose rescues from a traveling carnival and the girl who works for her, poor, suffering Imogene. Addie sees Miss Delight as a potential rival, and she concocts a plan with Imogene to free themselves of her. The film's peppered with regional dialogue, one of the most memorable line's uttered when Mose is forced to wrestle a backwoodsman in order to trade his new car for the hillbilly's battered old truck; "make him say calf-rope, Leroy!" one of the observers calls out. Paper Moon, directed by Peter Bogdonovich is adapted from the novel, "Addie Pray" (1971) by Joe David Brown.

Movie Reviews

The Skinny - 10/10 by Ian MantganiSweet, playful, reverberant - this is a perfect movie.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertTatum O’Neal creates a character out of thin air, makes us watch her every moment and literally makes the movie work.
Times (UK) - 10/10 by Wendy IdePart of an incredible 1970s career run for the director Peter Bogdanovich, Paper Moon remains a high point, not just for the talent involved behind the scenes and in front of the camera, but also for Hollywood.
The Skinny - 10/10 by Ian MantagniSweet, playful, reverberant - this is a perfect movie.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 10/10 by Ken HankeThe period detail and sound is pretty much perfect. The story is beguiling, the dialogue sparkles and the performances are first-rate.
The Age (Australia) - 10/10 by Jake WilsonShot in black and white by the versatile cinematographer Laszlo Kovacs, this has a mix of folksiness and precise craft that anticipates the Coen brothers, aiming to charm and succeeding.
Sarasota Herald-Tribune - 9/10 by Christopher LloydWhat's most interesting about Paper Moon is that it has the tone and timbre of a comedy, but the setting and style of the film are somber and more reminiscent of a European art film.
TIME Magazine - 9/10 by Jay CocksIt is very fussy about period detail, and goes to some length to evoke the dim days of Depression America, while just about everything else is left to slide.
Reno Gazette-Journal - 9/10 by Mark RobisonThe film's documentary feel meshes perfectly with the sweet cynicism of the characters.
The A.V. Club - 9/10 by Noel MurraySnappy patter reigns again, but by letting the story develop in open spaces rather than through tight edits, Bogdanovich fosters an atmosphere of freedom and promise.
