Synopsis
Luck (2012) is an HBO drama you can watch online on iFILM. Chester "Ace" Dunroy (Dustin Hoffman) just walked out of prison after eight years and headed straight back to the horse-racing world. He has money, patience, and a score to settle.
The show unfolds across the backstretch of a California racetrack. A syndicate of gamblers pools cash to buy a horse none of them fully understands. Nick Nolte's aging trainer Walter Smith has worked with horses his whole career and now has one animal that might actually be something. Jockeys, bookies, mob money — it all moves through the same dirt oval.
Created by David Milch (Deadwood), with Michael Mann directing the pilot, Luck builds on silence and slow-burning character work rather than plot momentum. Dense, patient television. Stream Luck (2012) online on iFILM.
