“The Lottery” was a film made in 1989 starring Bette Midler and directed by Gary Marshall (he’s the gray haired owner of the baseball team in the movie A League of Their Own). In the film, Bette”˜s character is a singing instructor who suddenly wins the lottery but quickly loses the ticket and tries to chase it down. It was a film that was just a few minutes long, but it was featured as part of the old Backlot Tour attraction where guests would see the film and then be shown how stunt work, body doubles and movie sets were used to produce the film.
