The Polka King (2018)

Charming immigrant dreams of American success, but there's not as much money in polka as he expected. To give his family a good life and pay his band a decent wage, he starts selling promissory notes with huge interest rates -- your basic Ponzi scheme. The story is pretty bizarre, encompassing a bribe to get his tour group a personal visit with the pope, another to get his wife voted Mrs. Pennsylvania, and a horrible injury while incarcerated for his fraud charges. But, through it all, it's impossible not to root for this upbeat guy who's done bad things.

It reminded me strongly of Bernie. Probably because Jack Black once again is playing a true-life sweetheart who winds up on the wrong side of the law.
