American Hustle (2013) – Trailer

This is the first film for David O. Russell since The Fighter and from the looks of this trailer and this star studded lineup this is going to be one wild ride.  The movie is set in the 70’s and stars Christian Bale and Amy Adams.  Then sprinkle in a little Silver Linings Playbook with Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper and you have the makings of a late year hit.  The film is due to be released in December 2013.

Plot –

The film tells the story of brilliant con man Irving Rosenfeld, who along with his equally cunning and seductive British partner Sydney Prosser is forced to work for a wild FBI agent Richie DiMaso. DiMaso pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia that’s as dangerous as it is enchanting. Jeremy Renner is Carmine Polito, the passionate, volatile, New Jersey political operator caught between the con-artists and Feds. Irving’s unpredictable wife Rosalyn could be the one to pull the thread that brings the entire world crashing down.
