Henry Fonda, Joanne Woodward and Jason Robards headline this sly, sassy Old West caper about a Texas town's humdinger of a poker game.

What's she got? Kings over queens? Four aces? Straight flush? Whatever the beautiful blonde holds, watch out! A "reformed" gambler and homesteader (Fonda) sits down at the card table, loses his family's $4,000 startup stake - and then is dealt a fantastic hand.

What happens next offers a full deck of suspense, humor and surprises, many involving an aces-high ensemble (Charles Bickford, Burgess Meredith, Kevin McCarthy, Paul Ford) and especially the newcomer's wife (Woodward), who says she hasn't a clue about how to play. A big hand? Give this clever, all-star comedy a standing ovation!

When autoplay is enabled, a suggested video will automatically play next.
