I really loved the movie Jackpot. I really enjoyed watching Jon Gries in this movie. I also think Daryl Hannah was great!
I think Jon Gries and Daryl Hannah worked wonderful in Jackpot. The great supporting cast includes Jon Gries, Daryl Hannah, Garrett Morris, Patrick Bauchau, Adam Baldwin.
I left some information, immages, and video previews of Jackpot below.
Summary of Jackpot: Jon Gries (Men in Black) and Saturday Night Live's Garrett Morris star in this bizarre yet compelling little road movie. Sunny Holiday (Gries) dreams of being a singer. Rather than taking a more direct route, he works on "building his audience" by hitting tiny karaoke contests across the country. Gries underplays Sunny well, making him neither too good nor too bad a singer; his dreams seem reasonable and ludicrous at the same time. Morris makes Les a beautiful counterpoint--someone who's either a shrewd genius or completely nuts. The story line is an odd one that falls apart a bit at the end, but is nonetheless worth watching. Much like Sunny and Les, Jackpot is weird but surprisingly likable. --Ali Davis
Gilda A unique, one-of-a-kind movie! Both Rita Hayworth and Glenn Ford has earned overwhelmingly positive reviews and is considered by many to be one of the best films of the year! Maybe thats what makes the movie so good.The great cast includes Rita Hayworth, Glenn Ford, George Macready, Joseph Calleia, Steven Geray. The movie moves on like a dream and end leaving you wanting for more.
If you love watching Rita Hayworth or Glenn Ford, you are deffinetly going to want to watch Gilda.
All film noirs need deceit, betrayal, dialogue hard as diamonds--and dames even harder than that. But Gilda is the only one with the dame front and center, and for good reason. Rita Hayworth shimmers in the 1946 classic, which spins on a tortured plot involving the title character (Hayworth); her imperious husband (George Macready), a ruthless casino owner and head of an Argentine tungsten cartel (!); and Johnny Farrell (Glenn Ford), Gilda's ex-lover and now her husband's go-fer. But no one watches Gilda for the plot, except to learn that all the characters have secrets--perhaps even ones they would kill for. Hayworth captures Gilda's vulnerability beneath her devil-may-care front ("If I'd been a ranch, they would have named me the Bar Nothing"). Not to be missed: Hayworth's slinky striptease to "Put the Blame on Mame." --Anne Hurley
