He plays both sides, immersing himself in an illicit, underground world while garnering the attention of Frank (John Goodman), a loan shark with a paternal interest in Bennettās future. As his relationship with a student (Brie Larson) deepens, Bennett must take the ultimate risk for a second chance…
