That’s a fair point but I’m familiar with the plot synopsis of the gambler and it seems to be a drama with gambling elements rather than a depiction of the experiences of actual gamblers.

I had a good laugh seeing the massively overrated Save the Tiger in here. Lolz

How did Jack Lemmon win an Oscar for this?

Not only captures gambling/addiction, but the difficulties of finding your place in America. Pairs well with Two Lane Blacktop (another 70s flick).
Awesome list – Straight Time and Fat City are two other greats (although Fat City has kind’ve gone by the wayside now, it was popular on release).

I agree 100% that Cali Split is the best movie about gambling, but how can you make that statement without seeing The Gambler? Hhahahahah

Phase IV is a bonkers movie. The scene where the ant queen is on the balcony like Mussolini…
