Message: [QUOTE="SES Inc., post: 6807048, member: 1026255"] Definitely agree with The Cincinnati Kid as being the ultimate poker movie. It plays like a Bond movie. Steve McQueen gets both girls ( the good one and the bad one ) he almost kills a guy with a razor blade to the throat, and there is even a real **** fighting scene. It is completely immersed in the poker world and is set in no less than New Orleans. Steve McQueen shows why he is considered the coolest kid in school and Edward G Robinson is the ultimate reigning champion since Jacky Gleason playing Minnesota Fats. If you haven't seen it then shame on you. You can throw around all your Maverick, 21, Molly's Game and even Rounders ( my second love) but The Cincinnati Kid will always be a untouchable classic.
