He owes over forty thousand dollars to his bookie, Hips (Paul Sorvino, Goodfellas), who has mob connections and threatens violence against Axel if he doesn’t pay his debts. Managing to borrow enough money from his mother to pay what he owes, Axel flees town with his girlfriend Billie (Lauren Hutton, American Gigolo) for Las Vegas, which thrusts him back into the world of gambling, resulting in an anxiety-inducing spiral of unpaid debts, violence, and despair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe American debut of Czech-born British filmmaker Karel Reisz (Saturday Night, Sunday Morning), The Gambler is now an iconic entry in the pantheon of 1970s crime cinema. Featuring a manic, career defining, performance from James Caan accompanied by stunning on location photography from cinematographer Victor J. Kemper (Dog Day Afternoon), production design by Philip Rosenberg (All That Jazz), and palpably tense editing work from future filmmaker Roger Spottiswoode (Under Fire), Reisz’s film is one of the great American films of the New Hollywood era. Cinématographe is proud to present The Gambler in a new 4K restoration for its world UHD debut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-Disc Set: 4K Ultra HD + Region A Blu-ray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K UHD presented in Dolby Vision High-Dynamic-Range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly scanned \u0026amp; restored in 4K from its 35mm original camera negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew audio commentary by film critic Glenn Kenny\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival audio commentary by film critic Matthew Asprey Gear, recorded in 2021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Gambler vs. The Gambler - a new video essay from film historian Samm Deighan comparing the 1974 original and 2014 remake of The Gambler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter the Game - an archival video essay from film historian Chris O'Neill, recorded in 2021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn The Morning After: Composing The Gambler - an archival interview about Jerry Fielding’s score with film music historian Jon Burlingame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJames Caan on Charlie Rose - a full, 26-minute interview between actor James Caan and journalist Charlie Rose, recorded in 1996\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKarel Reisz on Karel Reisz - a two-hour-long audio interview with the filmmaker, recorded in 1991, provided by The British History Project\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish SDH subtitles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cinema Cellar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42437822677077,"sku":"VINCIN-029","price":55.18,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3032\/6613\/files\/cin-029_uhd_mockup.jpg?v=1777334918","url":"https:\/\/cinemacellar.com\/products\/gambler-4k-uhd-blu-ray-set-standard-edition","provider":"Cinema Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
