Mississippi Grind

Description

"Mississippi Grind" is a 2015 road movie that follows two gamblers, Gerry and Curtis, as they travel from Iowa to New Orleans, hoping to win big in a high-stakes poker game. Along the way, they encounter a series of colorful characters and have to overcome various obstacles, including their own addiction to gambling.

The movie explores themes such as luck, friendship, and the American Dream. Gerry and Curtis have different motivations for their gambling addiction: Gerry sees it as a way to escape his mundane life, while Curtis sees it as a means to provide for his family. Despite their differences, they form a bond and help each other overcome their personal challenges.

"Mississippi Grind" has been praised for its authentic portrayal of the gambling subculture and for the strong performances from its lead actors, Ryan Reynolds and Ben Mendelsohn. The movie has been compared to classic road movies like "Easy Rider" and "Midnight Cowboy" and has been described as a character study of two flawed individuals chasing their dreams.

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

Think of Prom as High School Musical with heavy doses of teen-aged angst. Summarizing Prom in frighteningly reductive terms, Disney says, "A group of teenagers get ready for their high school prom," and the producers list it simultaneously as "comedy" and "drama." If you read only that description, you easily could conclude Prom dramatizes debutantes' struggles with mascara and up-dos. To her everlasting credit, Aimee Teegarden, veteran of heavy high school drama in "Friday Night Lights," goes a long way toward redeeming Prom from its awkward identity crisis. With a properly delicate and ironic touch, Ms. Teegarden effectively captures every sophisticated senior's inchoate recognition that "valedictory" means farewell and "commencement" is a synonym for "see ya." "Nova, Ms. Teegarden's allegorically named character, recognizes her pet antagonist probably is the ideal prom date, heavy on the fun factor and devoted to keeping rented tuxedos and poofy dresses in perspective. The unlikely pair contrasts sharply with Mei and Tyler, swept-away sweethearts, who wrestle with conscience and logistics as they work to wring every last micro-gram of meaning and romance from "the biggest night of their lives.""Set for release the last weekend of April, 2011, Prom may or may not set the tone for the Class of 2011's dining and dancing extravaganzas, but it surely will provide invaluable fashion and etiquette tips.
