Maverick: The Art Lovers
18 May 2015
When slick Jack Cassidy reneges on his promise to back Bart in a poker game, Bart becomes a servant to pay off his debt. Tycoon Sutton faces bankruptcy but owns what he thinks is the stolen Mona Lisa. Bart discovers that an art dealer is selling fake Mona Lisas to Sutton's associates. When Cassidy tries to have Bart Shanghaied, he gets Shanghaied. No one says "Shanghaied" anymore. I suppose it would be considered politically incorrect. Maverick has been called the thinking man's western, and that is what it is. It's plots demonstrate a world-class knowledge. Sometimes the plots are so intricate that it is better to let go.
