Based on M.O. Walsh\u2019s novel of the same name, \u201cThe Big Door Prize\u201d tells the story of a small town that is forever changed when a mysterious machine appears in the general store, promising to reveal each resident\u2019s true life potential. Dusty Hubbard (O\u2019Dowd), a seemingly content, cheerful family man and high school teacher, watches everyone around him reevaluate their life choices and ambitions \u2014 based on the machine\u2019s printouts \u2014 and is forced to question whether he is truly as happy as he once thought. While he remains skeptical of the machine, his wife, Cass (Dennis), indulges in the dream that there\u2019s something bigger out there for her. Like many of Deerfield’s residents, the couple has lived a relatively safe, uncomplicated life, until the arrival of the Morpho machine. However, all of that is about to change when the community is forced to reconcile with their unfulfilled achievements in pursuit of a better future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
