Watch The Grand Online

The film's style is similar to the films of Christopher Guest (Penn himself states this), where each actor is given direction concerning their character, and the actors are left to improvise each individual scene. The plot of The Grand was somewhat more open-ended than Guest's work, however. The focus of the film is a poker tournament played at the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas between the characters in which real poker matches were played by the actors as the scenes were filmed. The film's script did not specify the winner of the tournament, and the ending of the film was determined by the actual game played on set. The plot revolves around an international poker tournament. One-Eyed Jack Faro (Woody Harrelson) goes all-in to save his dead grandfather’s hotel-casino from a real estate developer. His master plan being to win the world’s most famous high stakes tournament, the Grand Championship of Poker in Las Vegas.
