Lotto A Modern Day Tale is a "Must See" Film

Lotto definitively falls under the "Favorites" category for independent films. It exposes the viewer to real life situations that draw you into the storyline while keeping you intrigued as to what will happen next. The main characters are intertwined within the fantasy that is reflected across a multitude of events that maintain the focus of the story. The movie allows for a viewer's selective interpretation of who the winners are after a culmination of everyday happenings across the main characters- Gina Davis, Sam Katz and Tom Riely's - lives. The ending is an understood but surprising result of jealousy that viewers will easily relate to.

In reviewing the credits, it must be noted that this movie was filmed, directed and produced by one and the same man - Jerry Russo. For an independent filmmaker this was both a challenge and tremendous accomplishment that few can claim...my hat comes off to Jerry Russo for an outstanding job...the first of what should be many more to come. Congratulations Jerry!!!
