Curly Sue is 1991 comedy film written and directed by John Hughes: his final film as director.
Bill (James Belushi) and Curly Sue (Alisan Porter) are a father-and-daughter team of con artists, who are taken in by lawyer Grey Ellison (Kelly Lynch) after she accidentally hits Bill with her car.
This film provides examples of:[]
- Family Versus Career: A question facing Grey.
- Flopsy: Bill tries to pull this on Grey, with Curly Sue playing the concerned bystander ("You've killed him!"). Then Grey accidentally hits him for real ("Now you've really killed him!").
- Little Miss Con Artist: Curly Sue
