Game — Molly's

The feature film Molly's Game (2017) serves as the directorial debut for Academy Award-winning screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, who adapted the screenplay from Molly Bloom’s memoir of the same name. The narrative follows Bloom’s extraordinary transition from a world-class Olympic-level skier to the architect of the most exclusive, high-stakes underground poker operation in the world.

The film highlights Bloom's (Jessica Chastain) resilience after a freak skiing accident at the US Olympic trials ended her athletic career. Moving to Los Angeles and then New York, she utilized her sharp intellect and entrepreneurial spirit to build a poker empire that attracted Hollywood A-listers, Wall Street moguls, and eventually, the Russian mob and the FBI.
