It also shows the mass poverty suffered by the us in the past. Rating: - A Place In My Heart Like most of the people reviewing The Flim Flam Man I feel like I personally connected with this movie. Its about a time, place and people that no longer exist and even back in 1967 I'm sure it was just dismissed as rural humor not up to the standards of urban folks.

THE FLIM FLAM MAN, one of my favorite films for many, many years, deserves a proper DVD release from 20th Century Fox! It's a wonderful comedy from George C.

A wealth of fine character actors grace this rollicking yet heartfelt Irvin Kershner film, so watch for Harry Morgan, Sue Lyon, Jack Albertson, Albert Salmi, Alice Ghostley, Slim Pickens, Strother Martin and Woodrow Parfrey. A joy from start ... Read More Rating: - A Hidden Jewel I don't own this movie but I have seen it a number of times and it is great! I highly recommend it. Better yet, I have a small personal connection to the film. At the very beginning of the film you will see a train entering a small town. That town is my hometown of Midway, KY which is near Lexington. Beautiful country. While the beginning of the movie was being filmed I was in my mid teens in and I was on location for the filming. I never forgot that event and I always make sure that I see the very beginning ... Read More Rating: - Instructive and entertaining This movie should be required for anyone who is going into sales. It is one of George C. Scott's finest, and most unappreciated films. Slim Pickens also makes a great appearance. It is a cinema text book on psychology. see more
