Movie of the Week -- Rounders
Rounders is one of my all-time favorite movies. I had never heard of the movie until the poker-craze hit a few years ago and a couple of my buddies insisted watching it. After the first 15 minutes I was hooked and I still recite lines from time to time (Teddy KGB is a favorite). It features actors such as Matt Damon, Ed Norton, John Malkovich, Martin Landau, and John Turturro. Mike (Matt Damon) loses his Law School tuition money in a high-stakes game and vows to never play again. Worm (Ed Norton), an old friend of Mike, gets out of prison and, in order to pay off his debt, gets Mike back into poker. This is a classic movie for bus rides or just hanging out with the boys.
