Stephen Frears directs this Las Vegas-set comedy-drama about Beth Raymer (Rebecca Hall), a bubbly stripper who leaves Florida for Vegas seeking a more wholesome life. She finds work with seasoned bookie Dink (Bruce Willis) and soon becomes his lucky charm and right-hand woman, much to the chagrin of Dink's wife Tulip (Catherine Zeta-Jones). With Vince Vaughn and Joshua Jackson co-starring, this film offers a humorous look at the world of sports betting and personal reinvention.
