Wonder Wheel tells the story of four characters whose lives intertwine amid the hustle and bustle of the Coney Island amusement park in the 1950s: Ginny (Kate Winslet), a melancholy, emotionally volatile former actress now working as a waitress in a clam house; Humpty (Jim Belushi), Ginny's rough-hewn carousel operator husband; Mickey (Justin Timberlake), a handsome young life-guard who dreams of becoming a playwright; and Carolina (Juno Temple), Humpty's long-estranged daughter, who is now hiding out from gangsters at her father's apartment.

They had "the world on a string." Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop, known as "The Rat Pack," set the style and the pace for 1950s America as the nation roller-coastered its way toward the swinging '60s. The pack makes Vegas their kingdom with Frank and the boys ruling generously - a private corner of America, where anything goes. This safe haven proves invaluable to entertainers, politicians and the Mob, all of whom share restaurants, bars, cocktails...and more.
