Better Lucky Than Smart

Synopsis:
Jonathan Kravetz's latest work is a deranged comedy of larcenous manners, full of double-crosses, sex scandals and family values. When a daffy scheme to pass off old violins as Stradivarii explodes into a kidnapping plot involving the president's mistress, FBI, Mafia, and CIa; Henry, a clueless dreamer might end up dead or worse. Can Henry's precocious, foul-mouthed 12-year-old son Tyler and suspiciously savvy wife Jane save his hash? What secrets will be revealed, what will happen to the 5 million dollars ransom, and are attractive women really flammable?
