    Summary: 
    "Get ready to get lucky! Professional odds-maker Dink (Bruce Willis) is running a small-time sports gambling enterprise when a former stripper named Beth (Rebecca Hall) promises to help him score big - and turns his world upside down. With his connections and her knack for numbers, the lucrative business of sports betting will never be the same. Catherine Zeta-Jones and Joshua Jackson round out the talented cast of misfits who are willing to risk everything for their dreams. Sly and sexy, heart-warming and hilarious, Lay The Favorite, directed by Stephen Frears (The Queen, High Fidelity), delivers laughs and thrills in this vivid expose of the world of gambling based on Beth Raymer's best-selling memoir."--Container.
