Synopsis
Jinxed
is an apt name for this disastrous project which, sadly, turned out to be
Don Siegel
's final film. The film takes place in Reno, where blackjack dealer Willie Brodax (
Ken Wahl
) becomes an innocent victim of a broken-down gambler named Harold Benson (
Rip Torn
). Such is Willie's luck that when he sees Benson sit down at his blackjack table, he realizes that he will soon be out of a job. Benson is also giving his girlfriend Bonita Friml (
Bette Midler
) a difficult time. When she notices Willie and sees how Bensen is putting him through the wringer, she begins to fall for him and gets him involved in a scheme to kill her boyfriend. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide
