The life of a degenerate gambler is a rough one, especially for a club owner that has been white knuckling his way through paying of his crushing debts for years. Then to celebrate his newfound independence he gathers up his best gals and goes out for a night on the town…and loses everything. Offered a way to clear the debt, all he has to do is kill a “low level guy, a Chinese Bookie,” and here his nightmare begins. Join Chris as he gasses on about John Casavettes, being uncomfortable in one’s own skin, and the merits of editing as the LSCE screens the 1976 neo noir crime drama “The Killing of a Chinese Bookie.” Join us!
