Chicago. Another town, another innocent scam for vagabond Bill Dancer (Jim Belushi of K-9 and Red Heat) and the curly-topped orphan he's cared for since infancy. But this time, Bill hits the jackpot: his newest con whisks them both from the poorhouse to the penthouse with lots of laughs along the way. Nine-year-old Alisan Porter (Parenthood, Stella) teams with Belushi, taking the title role in John Hughes' comedy that charmed moviegoers from coast to coast. Kelly Lynch (Road House, Drugstore Cowboy) joins the heartwarming fun as an attorney who falls for their scheme and takes them home. It's a situation that seems too good to be true. And it turns topsy-turvy when Lynch's jealous boyfriend intervenes. Reviewer Pat Collins of WWOR-TV pronounced Curly Sue "the feel-good comedy of the season." But with Hughes' wisecracking wit and tender touch, it's really a prize entertainment for any season.

Curly Sue Film Synopsis

Bill Dancer and his young companion Curly Sue are the classic homeless folks with hearts of gold. Their scams are aimed not at turning a profit, but at getting enough to eat. When they scam the rich and beautiful Grey Ellison into believing she backed her Mercedes into Bill, they're only hoping for a free meal. But Grey is touched, and over the objections of her snotty fiancé.

На этот раз Биллу улыбнулась удача: его безобидное мошенничество приводит их из ночлежки для бездомных в роскошный особняк. Они инсценируют попадание Билла под колеса машины, за рулем которой была богатая молодая женщина. Испугавшись за жизнь Билла, она приглашает его и Сью пожить временно у нее дома…

Sin embago, para Curly, Bill es toda la familia que ha conocido desde pequeña, y piensa que no necesita a nadie más. Con él vive moviéndose constantemente de un lado para otro, y esta vida errante que llevan le parece extraordinaria, aunque a veces, para sobrevirir, tengan que realizar alguna que otra pequeña estafa.

Con el paso de los días, y una vez superadas ciertas dificultades, el improbable trio empieza a perfilarse como una futura perfecta familia.

Ciò suscita le ire di Walker Mc Cormick, il fidanzato di Grey, che tenta, inutilmente, di convincerla ad allontanare i due intrusi. Per un insieme di circostanze e, soprattutto, per la vivacità di Curly, la donna si affeziona alla bambina e a Bill il quale, ormai invaghitosi di Grey, è intenzionato a trovare un onesto lavoro. Deluso ed adirato, Mc Cormick denuncia Dancer alla polizia come illegale tutore della bambina.

Za pomoci starého triku, když předstírá, že je sražen autem, se mu podaří vymámit z vyděšené řidičky Frey Ellisonové večeři. Po noci strávené v noclehárně se oba tuláci znovu setkávají s Grey, která tentokrát Billa srazí doopravdy. Mladá žena, která pracuje jako úspěšná advokátka, pozve Billa i jeho kudrnatou partnerku k sobě. Má pocit, že by se především o Sue měla postarat, i když se kvůli tomu pohádá se svým upjatým přítelem Walkerem. Opatří oběma nové šaty a přinutí Billa, aby si sehnal práci. Walker, který vycítí vzrůstající náklonnost mezi Grey a Billem, se postará, aby se Bill, který se zcela nerozloučil se svojí podvodnickou minulostí, dostal do vězení. Sue skončí v dětském domově.
