Matchstick Men

"Roy and Frankie are matchstick men, con artists. Partners in elegant crimes for years, they know each other like brothers and have perfected the rules of the game. Roy is the careful one. Saves every penny. Takes his medication regularly. Without the pills, his obsessive-compulsive disorder kicks in and he is too nauseated to do anything but stare at the dirt on the carpet."--Jacket.

  • "Neurotic con man Roy suffers from several emotional problems, including obsessive-compulsive disorder. He and his partner Frank swindle people out of money. Frank wants to pull a really big job, but Roy is too consumed with fear and panic attacks to join him. Only cigarettes and his trusty illegal prescription drugs seem to keep him going. When Roy finds himself in desperate need of more pills, he is forced to see legitimate psychotherapist Dr. Klein. Roy discovers he has a daughter from his previous marriage and Dr. Klein suggests Roy spend time with her."@en
  • "Roy en Frankie zijn matchstick men, ofwel kleine kruimeldieven. In hun jarenlange partnerschap van oplichting en bedriegerijtjes hebben ze elkaar leren kennen als hun eigen broekzak; samen vormen ze een gesmeerd team."
