The rapport between Addie and Moses is phenomenal–and being father and daughter doesn’t make that a sure thing. The set design and cinematography combine to give both the flavor of documentary photos and the visual quality of movies from the period, and every performance meshes with the overall tone of sincerity, earnest optimism, and creeping desperation. Set in Depression-era Kansas, Paper Moon is a miracle of unity. Newly orphaned Addie (Tatum O’Neal) falls into the care of small-time con artist Moses Pray (Ryan O’Neal, Tatum’s real-life father) and turns out to be better at grifting than he is.
