The legalization of gambling in Atlantic City radically changes the life of Lou (Burt Lancaster), an aging small time numbers runner. Infatuated with his waitress neighbor, Sally (Susan Sarandon), Lou still holds on to the dream that he will one day be a high stakes player in organized crime. But when Sally`s ex-husband turns up with a large amount of high quality cocaine in his possession, then is quickly murdered, Lou finally gets his chance to become involved with big money and the mob--getting closer to the woman of his dreams in the process. Louis Malle`s heartfelt, character-driven drama, with a script by playwright John Guare (SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION), is full of great performances. Academy Award Nominations: 5, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor--Burt Lancaster, Best Actress--Susan Sarandon, Best (Original) Screenplay.
