Movie Haiku:Wonderful Mark Isham score grounds this moody fairytale about the love life of a Las Vegas loser (Macy). Baldwin’s wonderful as Macy’s boss, the last of a dying breed of casino moguls fighting against Disney-fication. (Think of him as “son of Moe Green.”). Macy’s great & Bello matches every move.
