Atlantic City combines the poetry of French romance with the hard-boiled wit of American gangster films. Lou (Burt Lancaster) is an aged errand boy for the mob in Atlantic City whose life consists of watching the casinos of his youth demolished, caring for his former boss's widow and dreaming about being the big shot he never was. That is, until he meets Sally (Susan Sarandon) whose personal life proves to be a heart-stopping wake-up call: her ex is back in town with her pregnant sister, a load of stolen cocaine and pack of killers trailing behind. When Lou gets involved he finds a chance for romance and redemption. With the creative coupling of director Louis Malle (Murmur of the Heart) and Broadway playwright John Guare (Six Degrees of Separation, it's no surprise that Atlantic City has won a plethora of awards, including best picture, director and writer--making it a classic you won't want to miss. --Lloyd Chesley
