Quotes
Jack Madrid: It's not about black power or white power, it's about green power! Money! M-O-N-E-Y! We're talking about geometric progression: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64!See more »
and it's a good one....even though this movie was made for tv during progressive stages of his illness, rock hudson still carries the show with the charisma that made him famous...he plays a donald trump-like casino persona who at one minute is on top of the world and the next flat broke...james earl jones is outrageous, sharon stone is so young, and pat morita is his usual self...but it's rock hudson, with withdrawn cheekbones soon to die, who breaths life into this film as he did as president in another excellent made-for-tv movie, world war III...what a powerful and daring performance he delivers to end his career...the gamble,lost in real life, here becomes an immortal win.
