Things Change

ComedyCrimeDrama100 min

Jerry, a low-ranking Mafia errand man, is told to keep an eye on Gino, an aging shoe repairman the mob wants to pin with a murder he didn’t commit. Joe Mantegna is Jerry, a misfit henchman whose routine assignment turns strange when Don Ameche’s Gino is mistaken for a crime boss. The mix-up pushes both men far beyond their usual place in the organization and into the company of higher-level mob figures, where every introduction carries risk and the confusion gets harder to control.
