Things Change
Dealing with the mob is always a gamble.
Directed by David Mamet
Produced by Columbia Pictures, Filmhaus
A warm, playful buddy comedy about an unlikely friendship between a Mafia henchman and a humble shoe repairman caught in a case of mistaken identity.
Jerry, a misfit Mafia henchman, is assigned the low-level job of keeping an eye on Gino, a shoe repairman fingered by the Mob to confess to a murder he didn't commit. But Gino's mistaken for a Mafia boss, and the two are suddenly catapulted to the highest levels of mobster status. Only friendship will see them through this dangerous adventure alive!
