For a movie that hews startlingly close to that narrative, check out "The Informant!" starring Matt Damon and directed by Steven Soderbergh. I'm also not surprised Lawrence would be drawn to the role, it seems in line with what she does well: strong female characters. They're not always likable characters (for example, in "American Hustle"), and it also shouldn't be a surprise when an actor expands into different kinds of roles.

Thanks, I've added them to my todo list. First movie I ever saw Jennifer Lawrence in was Winter's Bone [1]. Goodness grace, she's such a heroine in that movie. No wonder she got typecast for the strong female roles. [1] https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1399683/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1399683/

  Me as well, and I definitely noticed that her role in "Hunger Games" was basically a young-adult dystopian scifi version of her role in "Winter's Bone" - and I feel her performance in both made each movie.

  Excellent movie. Not underrated, but under-watched.
