      Audience Member This is a great drama with great actors. Wilder and Newhart are a good team in this movie. I really liked this movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Unos amigos cumplen el rito de jugar al poker todos los jueves, hecho aceptado por sus esposas. Todo va bien, hasta que un dia deciden jugar por dinero, y alli sale lo peor de cada uno, y aparecen las miserias de todos. Film de television, muy bueno, con grandes actuaciones y escenas desopilantes y otras que nos dejan angustia existencial. Muy buena!
