Trading Places (1983)
A cruel bet is made by two immensely wealthy brothers. They arbitrarily decide to swap the lives of their managing director, a privileged and insufferable executive, with a street-smart hustler who is begging for change on the street. The executive is framed for a crime and stripped of his identity, while the beggar is given his job, home, and lifestyle. The experiment forces both men to experience a world utterly alien to them, leading them to discover a shared enemy in their manipulative benefactors.
