Storyline : Atlantic City is a
place where people go to realize their dreams, the promise of the future
manifested by the demolition of the old crumbling buildings to be replaced by
new hotels and casinos. Someone who recently came to Atlantic City for that
promise is native Moose Javian (Saskatchewan) Sally Matthews, who currently
works as a waitress at a hotel oyster bar, but who is training to be a black
jack croupier and wants to be more cultured, such as learning French, in order
to work at the casinos in Monte Carlo. Another dreamer who came to Atlantic
City decades ago is Lou Pascal, who has long worked as a numbers runner and
who claims to have been a cellmate and thus implied confidante of Bugsy
Siegel. Although Lou still dresses to the standard to which he is accustomed,
his dream long died as he only works penny ante stuff for Fred, most of his
current income from being the kept man of widowed recluse, Grace Pinza.
