Plot

Three young confidence tricksters— Vinnie, Carter and Rosie — pull off a racing scam, substituting winners for plodders and winning big money on long odds. When an official uncovers the scam, they set him up for blackmail. Twenty years later, Carter and Rosie are married, successful racers in Kentucky about to sell their prize stallion, Simpatico. Vinnie, meanwhile, is a drunk in Pomona. Vinnie decides to make a play for Rosie, lures Carter to California, steals his wallet and heads for Kentucky with the original blackmail material. Carter begs Vinnie's friend, a grocery clerk named Cecilia, to follow Vinnie and recover the material that he has in a box.

[de] Simpatico

Simpatico ist ein US-amerikanisch-britisch-französisches Filmdrama aus dem Jahr 1999. Regie führte Matthew Warchus, der gemeinsam mit David Nicholls das Drehbuch anhand des gleichnamigen Theaterstücks von Sam Shepard schrieb. Der britische Theaterregisseur gab damit sein Spielfilmdebüt. Erzählt wird die Geschichte eines mittellosen Trinkers (gespielt von Nick Nolte) und eines reichen Pferderennstallbesitzers (Jeff Bridges), die ihre Schuld aus einem lange zurückliegenden Wettbetrug gemeinsam abzutragen versuchen. Um für ihre Taten zu büßen, nehmen die beiden kurzfristig die Rolle des jeweils Anderen an.
