7 Best Gambling Movies

Robert De Niro created history in 1995 as an ace gangster who’s in charge of running a mobbed-up casino by following his moral compass. Unfortunately, his aspirations are cut short by his best friend and an ambitious woman that he should never have trusted.

Martin Scorsese’s intimate drama depicts the fine prints of running an underworld casino and the evolution of Sin City over just a few years. Scorsese is intimately familiar with the workings of the underworld and just like Goodfellas, Casino is a masterpiece that you simply mustn’t miss.

Clive Owen gave several powerhouse performances in his hay day and croupier is a prime example. Owen plays Jack, an aspiring novelist who desperately seeks success. And before long, he is a croupier getting to know the intricacies of casino gambling. The plot explores the sad and dismayed lives of people who’ve thrown their lives away at gambling.

And if you’re aren’t satisfied by the intricacies of the plot, the film’s recreation of the dingy casino life is oddly satisfying. Owen’s performance needs a special mention and it’s disappointing that he never played a similar character throughout his career.

Jack (Clive Owen), a struggling writer in desperate financial straits, takes up a job in a central London casino where he quickly becomes an accomplished croupier. But the work, together with its after-hours temptations, soon takes a toll on his private life.\n\nDirected by Mike Hodges (Get Carter), written by Paul Mayersberg (The Man Who Fell To Earth), and also starring Gina McKee, Alex Kingston and Nicholas Ball.\n\nA Film4 Production, released in the UK on 18th June 1999.\n\nSubscribe to Film4 for more interview specials, clips and trailers: https://bit.ly/2up0y8g

Renowned Screenplay Writer Aaron Sorkin made his directorial debut with Molly’s Game.
