Description | Blu-ray - Aaron Sorkin writes and directs this film inspired by the true story of Molly Bloom, also known as the "Poker Princess." Played by Jessica Chastain, Bloom made millions running an illegal gambling operation for celebrities. We see her grow from a headstrong kid to a competitive skier to organizing poker games for some of richest people on the planet. We also see her downfall. When the high life comes crashing down, Bloom desperately tries to persuade a New York lawyer (Idris Elba) to get her out of trouble. Molly's Game is full of stars including Michael Cera, who plays a movie star known only as "Player X," and Kevin Costner as Bloom's father. It's also full of the whip-smart dialogue that Sorkin does so well. |
