I gladly give this movie 5 stars for the Damon Runyon-esq type oddball, zany characters, the writing and the plot development. The idea that cab driver Trotter would win the first horserace, and then just let the winnings ride on each subsequent win, is fun -- especially the way he determines which horse to choose! As the movie highlights say, he smokes, he drinks, he gambles, he's thinking about having an affair -- you'l love him! It is one of our favorite movies and have watched it several times over the years on our cassette tape. There are a lot of great, almost throw-away lines scattered throughout the movie, so listen carefully and closely. So give it a viewing, because you know what they say --"Nothing ventured, nothing ventured."
