The Luckiest Man in America (2025) Movie Review & Ending Explained: Is Michael Larson a Hero of the American Dream?

It stars Paul Walter Hauser as the said show contestant Michael Larson, while David Strathairn, Shamier Anderson, Walton Goggins, and Patti Harrison round out the remaining central cast. Through their characters, the film critiques the venerated American Dream.
