CGiii Comment

More muddled Altman...

There's a scene with a transvestite...not funny, rather offensive.

Forgotten for a reason - as most of Altman's over-rated work should be...

The(ir) Blurb...

A down on his luck gambler links up with free spirit Elliot Gould at first to have some fun on, but then gets into debt when Gould takes an unscheduled trip to Tijuana. As a final act of desperation, he pawns most of his possessions and goes to Reno for the poker game of a lifetime. A film set mainly in casinos and races, as the two win and lose (but mainly win), get robbed, and get blind drunk.
