The Cooler is Bernie Lootz, and THE COOLER is about the changing fortunes of this down-at-heels loser who has made a career out of spreading his virulent bad luck on the floor of Las Vegas' aging Shangri-La casino. When Bernie falls for a gorgeous cocktail waitress his bad luck is thrown into reverse.
Are you lucky?
I like the idea behind this film and the underlying message that luck is a consequence of inner well-being and a positive psychology. The paradox of Las Vegas is beautifully presented to us - the seeming dazzle and exhilaration of the strip against the soulless and lonely existence that many of its workers experience each day. The Cooler is one of these workers, a man employed by the Shangri La to bring bad luck to high rollers just by being himself and 'cooling' the floor.

The concept that luck can be influenced and is not purely random migh...
Cooler, The The story of a man whose job it is to bring bad luck to gamblers on a winning streak. Drama starring William H Macy, Alec Baldwin and Maria Bello

The film opens as Bernie is just days away from fulfil...

Cooler, The
Is luck a product of fate or psychology? That's the question posed in director Wayne Kramer's wonderfully quirky film, in which unlucky William H Macy is employed by casino manager Alec Baldwin (a deservedly Oscar-nominated performance) for his knack of making high rollers lose, simply by his presence. But when he falls in love with waitress Maria Bello, Macy's "cooling" abilities subside and Baldwin does everything he can to split them up. By turns a tender love story about two lost souls finding their perfect match, a lament for the fading glamour of Rat Pack-era Las Vegas and a vaguely mystical parable about chance and destiny, this sexually frank tale is consistently...
Cooler, The
Astringent comedy about two losers finding themselves amid the hectic, violent world of big-time gambling; the leading performances hit the jackpot.
