Based on the true story about couple Jerry and Marge Selbee, who win the lottery and use the money to revive their small town.
"Directed by David Frankel ("The Devil Wears Prada") and selected for the Tribeca Film Festival, "Jerry & Marge Go Large" is one of those incredible true-story comedies, in this case, the marriage of Jerry and Marge Selbee (detailed in Jason Fagone's eponymous article for HuffPost). "Jerry & Marge Go Large" starts when Jerry (the ever-reliable Bryan Cranston of "Breaking Bad"), a man who has dedicated his life to work, finds himself at retirement age. With no clear purpose, his wife Marge (Annette Bening of "American Beauty") tells him to find a hobby, and Jerry finds it when he discovers a totally legitimate loophole in the Michigan lottery, with which they plan to get rich. Although the production doesn't squeeze every last bit of juice out of its story, it's interesting enough to warrant a chance. Plus, as expected, the acting work is impeccable, with Cranston and Bening joined by Rainn Wilson ("The Office"), Larry Wilmore ("In the Line of Fire") and Michael McKean ("Better Call Saul")."
