 Rating:  - A natty numbers runner certain that everything is outbound (5 Stars)As Lou, an almost prissily natty numbers runner certain that everything - even the ocean - has deteriorated, Burt Lancaster gives the performance of his life in Louis Malle's Canadian-financed film Atlantic City (opening today at the Imperial). It might be fairer to call the picture a John Guare film, for Malle, best known in Ontario as the director of the unseen Pretty Baby, has entered entirely into his gifted playwright's episodic, jazzy view of the universe - Guare's script for Atlantic ... Read More Rating:  - Simply LancasterThis movie in my opinion is the last great performance of Burt Lancaster. Lancaster plays an aging gambler, who falls for a young woman played by Susan Sarandon. All the performances in the film are good but it's Lancaster who shines the most. Rating: - Excellent European film set in the USA"Atlantic City" follows some small time losers in a city that has seen better days. Atlantic City - as much a character in the film as the human actors - is being pulled down and rebuilt, the old days - represented by Lou (Burt Lancaster) and Gracie (Kate Reid) - are long gone. Sally Matthews (Susan Sarandon) is the new face of Altantic City, an outsider with no sense of history and a hopeless dreamer. Joseph (Michel Piccoli) represents the sophistication of Europe - although it hard to understand ...

Unable to fulfill the grandiose life narrative that he has constructed for himself, and with the once-solid exterior of Atlantic City symbolically crumbling around him, Lou is relegated to literally "answering the bell" and catering to a gaudy, caterwauling shut-in for chump change. Enter a young miss who uses lemons to freshen ... Read More Rating: - Grainy, Gritty And A Good StoryThis is a little bit on the seedy side but it's well-done and Burt Lancaster, once again, provides us with a wonderful character study. This time he's "Lou Pascal," an old-time small hood playing out his days in pathetic manner in a dingy Atlantic City. In fact, "seedy" describes Atlantic City in this picture. There's nothing seedy about the opening scene, however. It's an attention- grabber, at least if you're a male. We see Susan Sarandon, squeezing lemon juice over her breasts at the kitchen window. ...
