California Split is a
1974 film directed by
Robert Altman and
starring Elliott Gould
and George Segal as a
pair of gamblers. |
|
|
|
The film is less
concerned with plot than
behavior as we watch the
friendship between Bill
(Segal) and Charlie
(Gould) develop over a
mutual love of gambling.
Charlie is a
wisecracking joker and
experienced gambler
constantly looking for
the next score.
Initially, Bill isn’t as
committed a gambler (he
works at a magazine
during the day) but he’s
on his way. As the film
progresses and the two
men hang out more, Bill
starts to become more
addicted to the gambling
lifestyle." source:

and Amarillo Slim
playing himself. |
