American Hustle — Special Event with David O. Russell
The con is on when scam artists and lovers Irving Rosenfeld (Christian Bale) and Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams) are entrapped by ambitious FBI agent Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper) and coerced into participating in a major sting operation that hinges on snaring politician Carmine Polito (Jeremy Renner) and his associates.
Complicating matters is Irving’s wife Rosalyn (Jennifer Lawrence), who could bring the whole operation crashing down around them all. From director David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook, The Fighter), American Hustle is outrageously entertaining and one of the most acclaimed films of the 2010s.
Extended introduction by director David O. Russell.
“An infectious blast of funky jazz played by a terrific cast and a director at the top of their respective games.”
-David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
