[3] Trading Places  颠倒乾坤

Duke brothers Randolph (Ralph Bellamy) and Mortimer (Don Ameche) own Duke & Duke, a successful commodities brokerage in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Holding opposing views on the issue of nature versus nurture, they make a wager and agree to conduct an experiment switching the lives of two people at opposite sides of the social hierarchy and observing the results. They witness an encounter between their managing director—the well-mannered and educated Louis Winthorpe III (Dan Aykroyd), engaged to the Dukes' grand-niece Penelope (Kristin Holby)—and a poor street hustler named Billy Ray Valentine (Eddie Murphy); Valentine is arrested at Winthorpe's insistence because of a suspected robbery attempt. The Dukes decide to use the two men for their experiment...

路易斯·温索普三世是个金融家,他在兰道夫-莫蒂默公爵兄弟公司里有着显赫的地位和优厚的待遇。黑人比利是个流浪汉,为了讨口饭吃,他装扮作残废军人沿街乞讨。一次,比利被警察追捕,情急中躲进了上等俱乐部,不巧撞见了路易斯·温索普,路易斯遂将其交给了警察。莫蒂默公爵兄弟目睹了此事的全过程,兄弟俩对这件事持不同的观点,就命运的问题发生了争执,为了印证他们的话,两人决定以打赌这种形式定输赢:如果条件成熟,比利也可以成为上等人,而温索普同样可沦落到最底层。接下来,莫蒂默兄弟想方设法地将温索普搞臭,使他狼狈不堪,还丢掉了工作和金钱,而接替他的人则是比利。这种巨大的转变将温索普和比利弄得莫名其妙,洋相出尽后才发现了事情的真相。最后,温索普和比利团结起来报复了莫蒂默兄弟。
