Gambit is technically a remake of the utterly delightful 1966 Michael Caine/Shirley Maclaine movie of the same name, but the plot sounds very different.
In the remake, “Firth will play a London art curator who plots an elaborate scheme to con a wealthy collector (Alan Rickman) into buying a fake Monet painting.
As part of the ruse, he recruits a Texas steer roper (Diaz) to play the part of a woman whose grandfather liberated the painting at the end of WWII.”
The character roles are similar to those in the original, but the professions, methods, and Macguffin have changed.
Gambit will be the sophisticated choice on the January 11, 2013 weekend when it opens against Scary Movie 5 and the action-flick fairy-tale reimagining Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters starring Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton.
