Some guys have all the luck. Some guys are just good.
John Ventimiglia (THE SOPRANOS) stars as Nicky Singer, a down on his luck Brooklyn native that has parlayed a Yale education into the life of a professional poker player. He’s forced to balance his own interests with those of his father (Burt Young, ROCKY), whose gambling debts have pushed him to the brink of eviction. Now Nicky’s got a week to keep free of a slew of wannabe mobsters and thugs, while risking more than he should to save his father.
Directed by John-Luke Montias (whose feature OFF JACKSON AVENUE recently rocked the New York International Latino Film Festival), featuring rising star Alexie Gilmore (NEW AMSTERDAM) and based on Peter Alson’s New York Times best seller CONFESSIONS OF AN IVY LEAGUE BOOKIE, this short film is a perfect edition to anyone’s dramatic collection.
