Barely two points. Look asleep. The script is neat and deliberate. Atlantic City, Las Vegas, is a symbol of the American dream. In the framework of the crime film, there are two kinds of characters trapped here - Lancaster and the elderly group of the old woman downstairs, who are addicted to the glamorous past. Inability to move; the young group of the Sarandon family, Atlantic City is a post station for them to realize their dream of making a fortune. Lancaster completes Sarandon at the end of the credits. But the whole story is drowsy, the color matching is very bright, between fantasy and cartoon, the interior framing part is obviously artificial, the whole film basically does not need soundtrack, and there is no ambient sound, the characters seem to be in a certain state I can't extricate myself - the old lady downstairs is babbling and arrogant, Lancaster is mysterious and secretive, the scumbag husband is frightened and weak, Sarandon is hysterical when he sees money, plus the so-called gangsters who are full tools for drugs , this hypnosis package is very intimate. To say what's so personal about Mahler, the guilt of the age gap between Lancaster and Sarandon's relationship - even though they don't play very well

Both actors played the least like themselves, Lancaster and Sarandon in small roles that didn't accomplish anything, so unbelievable.
