The Cooler

Duration :

103

Summary: William H. Macy corners the market on losing as a Las Vegas casino employee who doles out bad luck for a living until he meets a pretty cocktail waitress. Bernie Lootz (Macy) is a long-time "cooler" at the Shangri-La casino: he is paid to bring his black cloud to any table where a gambler is on a roll and his lousy luck seems to rub right off. But Bernie's luck starts changing for the better--he's only days away from paying off a debt he owes to Shangri-La owner Shelly Kaplow and he's found romance in the person of new waitress Natalie. Bernie's roll makes him a poor cooler, however, and that doesn't sit well with Shelly...especially when Bernie's son arrives in town on a losing jag of his own. Co-starring Maria Bello, Shawn Hatosy, Ron Livingston, Estella Warren with Paul Sorvino and Alec Baldwin. Directed by Wayne Kramer; written by Frank Hannah & Wayne Kramer. (R) (AC,AL,N,V)
