Colin Hanks and Ari Graynor in Lucky (2011)
Ben's obsession with Lucy leads him down a dark path, as he begins murdering women who remind him of her. But when he wins the lottery -- courtesy of a ticket that belonged to one of his victims -- the pair are united in marriage. Despite the odds (and due to Lucy's love of money), the couple begins working together to protect Ben's secret.

    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Colin Hanks also played a serial killer in season 6 of "Dexter"
    • Goofs
      When Grace finds the 2nd check and opens the envelope the check is correctly made payable to Benjamin Keller, however the 'Authorized Signature' is also Ben's name (signature) (which also looks like a handwriting font as the 2 L's and E's in Keller are exactly the same)
    • Quotes
      • Grace: You seem like such nice people. Such nice people!
      • Ben Keller: We're still nice people, Grace, but we're also in love. And love's kinda scary. I'm starting to realize that now.
