American Hustle is based on the true story of Irving Rosenfeld (played by a barely recognizable Bale), a notorious financial con artist from the Bronx who, along and his Brit mistress/partner-in-crime Sydney (Adams), is forced to work with out-of-control FBI agent Richie DiMaso (Cooper) to expose other con artists, mobsters and politicians -- including volatile New Jersey mayor Carmine Polito (Jeremy Renner). Lawrence rounds out the cast as Rosenfeld's live-wire Long Island housewife, flaunting a loose-cannon demeanor that threatens to derail the entire operation.
