This was a pretty intense movie. It's a true story with Jessica Chastain as an ex Olympic skier. She started managing poker games with rock stars, business men, movie producers and such. Even gets involved with the Russian mafia. All this to make money to go to college and become a lawyer. She gets beat up by one of the mafia. FBI try to charge her with racketeering. It's quite a story. Free on YouTube.

I liked it. I like to see growth in the main characters, and this showed that.

See, to me that is the real American dream in terms of how it really works now. Can you do it?

I thought this was a story that did not need telling ,a rather dull movie
