The Cincinnati Kid (1965)
Director: Norman Jewison
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
With Jewison replacing Peckinpah as director, nowhere near as strong as it might have been, but Ring Lardner and Terry Southern's script, taken from Richard Jessup's novel about poker-sharks meeting for a big game in '30s New Orleans, is a vivid character study in the tradition of the not dissimilar The Hustler. Marvellous performances throughout ensure interest.Author: GA
