Love Ranch

Grace (Helen Mirren) is married to Charlie (Joe Pesci), a violent gangster constantly trying to hit the big time in Reno, Nevada. Throughout their marriage she has always been the brains to his brawn and together they are a force to be reckoned with... But when Charlie dreams up yet another money making enterprise and brings Bruza, a world class boxer into their realm everything will change. There is something different about Bruza - his passion, his past, his mane of hair - and despite the danger, Grace is unable to stay away from him. As the electricity between them builds to its inevitable conclusion, the weariness of Grace and Charlie's twenty-two year marriage begins to show. As does the dark and dangerous underbelly of Charlie's character when he finds himself sidelined. As the big fight draws closer, it transpires that Bruza has not told Grace everything. Bruza shouldn't be fighting and Grace shouldn't be caring. Although they both know better, they can't stop themselves from falling in love. When the enormity of Grace's treachery is revealed, Charlie reacts with the fury of a man who has lost everything when he almost had it all.
