Burt Lancaster stars as Lou, an aging mob flunkey, barely making a living in Atlantic City.
Susan Sarandon plays Sally, a casino croupier whose husband Dave (
Robert Joy) steals a large supply of drugs from the mob. When he is killed, the narcotics pass to the unwilling Sally. Lou, in the midst of longtime affair with middle-aged gangster's widow Grace (
Kate Reid), falls for the much younger Sally, becoming her savior by killing the mob thugs sent to shut her up. The killings serve a therapeutic value for Lou, proving that he hasn't lost his old panache.
