This week's pick is one from Justin and it's the 1996 American crime film written and, making his debut as Director, Paul Thomas Anderson and starring Philip Baker Hall, John C. Reilly, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Samuel L. Jackson. Plenty of Vegas, plenty of crime, an intriguing story, it's a wonder we hadn't seen this one before!

Plot Summary:
John has lost all his money. He sits outside a diner in the desert when Sydney happens along, buys him coffee, then takes him to Reno and shows him how to get a free room without losing much money. Under Sydney's fatherly tutelage, John becomes a successful small-time professional gambler, and all is well, until he falls for Clementine, a cocktail waitress and sometimes hooker.
