Giamatti scores another takedown

Rating: 8/10 (7 March 2019)

Doesnt Paul Giamatti ever get tired of selecting good scripts, roles, and films? I have seen almost every film he has made, and I cannot remember one bad one in the substatial lot. Win, Win is another in his long line of successes. With a fine supporting cast, including Bobby Cannavale, who made his bones in "Boardwalk Empire", and Amy Ryan, who is completely believable as a Jersey girl (I have known a few), and especially newcomer Alex Shaffer, who has great potential. This film has it all, starts slowly, and then gradually grabs you in emotoionally until the conclusion. Beautifully conceived, written with authenticity, and acted to perfection by a good cast. Who could ask for more?
