Synopsis by Mark Deming
This stylish crime thriller concerns a former criminal trying to set himself on the straight and narrow, until he happens upon a set of bootleg printing plates for $100 bills and soon finds himself a wanted man by both sides of the law. Luck of the Draw (also known as Quicksand), stars William Forsythe, Dennis Hopper, and Ice-T. The film gained some unusual press attention while it was being filmed when Mickey Rourke was fired from the project, reportedly because he refused to play a scene without his pet Chihuahua (the role was recast with Michael Madsen).
