Gary can get his hands on anything: a seat front and center at a Knick's game, entrance to an exclusive gallery or first-row concert tickets. But one thing Gary can't get is Linda. Join Oscar nominee Andy Garcia (1990, Best Supporting Actor, The Godfather, Part III) and beautiful Andie MacDowell as they experience love from two different sides of the track in this effervescent, wonderfully funny romantic comedy. Longtime New York con man Gary (Garcia) is the king of hustle, a god among scam artists and a loser in life. The only thing he has going for him is Linda (MacDowell), a stunning chef-in-the-making with a soft spot for underdogs. Accepted into a Parisian cooking school, Linda decides it's time to leave Gary because she sees no future with...a ticket scalper! Seeking advice from a man of the cloth, Gary's told - for a couple of Knick's tickets - to trust in God. Just as he is about to give up on the face value of faith, he learns that the Pope is to visit Yankee Stadium! Gary sees this as his sign to score big, get off the street and win Linda's heart. But a competitive rival has beaten Gary to the punch, buying all the tickets in order to muscle him out. Now Gary must hustle like never before to nab some Papal tix before he loses Linda and remains a hustler forever. If you're looking for a charmingly sweet story about a man with good intentions, you've already got the best seat in the house and we have Just The Ticket.
