SYNOPSIS

Ben Gazzara and Seymour Cassel star in this story about a man whose idea of comfort means living on the edge. In order to erase his gambling debt to a loan shark, he must kill an underworld Chinese Bookie. But when he botches the killing, he becomes the target. The gangsters persue him but he escapes with a bullet in his side, intent only on returning to 'The Crazy Horse West' for one final introduction for the last act of the night.
