California Split
ComedyDrama108 min
A chance meeting pulls two habitual gamblers into a fast, unstable friendship built on cards, racetracks, and borrowed money. Bill and Charlie move from one bet to the next, chasing small wins, digging out from losses, and living on the rush that keeps telling them the next turn will fix everything. As the stakes rise, so do the debts, the drinking, and the strain of a life organized around luck. Elliott Gould and George Segal play men who keep doubling down, even as the line between a good night out and a full collapse gets harder to see.
