Lucky You The Poker Movie Out This September


A new poker movie entitled Lucky You will be released in September, 2006 and there is plenty of Hollywood buzz surrounding this one. Curtis Hanson directs Eric Bana, Robert Duvall, and Drew Barrymore in an original story by acclaimed screenplay writer Eric Roth.

Lucky You deals with an up and coming young poker professional who must face his estranged father, a famous poker pro in his own right at the World Series Of Poker. There's a fallen woman in the mix as well who teaches the young hot-shot some crucial life lessons. The role of the blowsy singer is played by Drew Barrymore.

It could all be predictable and cliched, but the team behind the film is too strong to let that happen. Hanson directed L.A. Confidential and 8Mile while Roth wrote the screenplay for Munich, Ali, and The Insider (full disclosure, he also wrote the screenplays for Forrest Gump and The Horse Whisperer, so he isn't infallible).

The main actors are also very strong performers. Bana was also in Munich as well as The Incredible Hulk while Duvall needs no introduction.

Lucky You is going to be very interesting to watch for poker players as many top poker pros make cameo appearances in the film where they play themselves. Daniel Negreanu, Doyle Brunson, and Jennifer Harman all appear.

There is a rumor going round that the character played by Robert Duvall, L.C. Cheever, is loosely based on Doyle Brunson. He is probably a composite of those old-time Texans who hustled as rounders for years and lived life on the edge.

It should be a fascinating film, and one that every poker fan will relish.
