How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A taut psychological duel between a cocky upstart and a seasoned gambling master, where the stakes are as much about pride and legacy as they are about money. The film builds inexorably toward a climactic card game that tests not just skill but character.
