The Lottery is a 1989 American short comedy film starring Bette Midler and directed by Garry Marshall which was shown at the then Disney-MGM Studios in line for the first versions of the Studio Backlot Tour.

Plot

Bette Midler stars as a music teacher giving a singing lesson to a student in her apartment. She suddenly wins the lottery but quickly loses the ticket when it is swept out her window by a gust of wind and subsequently chases the ticket all over New York City. The film was shot on February 3, 1989 at Disney MGM Studios on the New York City backlot set. It took a crew of over 100 people to produce.[1]

The Lottery is the first film ever to be completely filmed at the Disney-MGM Studios theme park. It was used to demonstrate general filmmaking, the use of exterior sets and soundstage sets, special effects and stunts.
