cast bone to pick represent david jannsen be 38 play the father of robert drivas and who be then and 31 ( yeah and i realize he suppose to be just out of college and but clue in the script have him be a loafer and so he probably 24 25 in the script that still put jannsen in parent class in junior high ) . i assume the ama write medical miracle up in their 1938 year in medicine . this movie hasn not age very well at all and now it main appeal be just to see a snap shot of sin city and circa 1969 and all the incessant smoking and the weird hair ( drivas have an atomic comb over that make him resemble a well groom hip cousin it ) and trendy fashion that go along with it . if anyone remembers and lv wasn not exactly london . the city coddle the mob and codger gambler in those day . drivas come off a sexually ambiguous while his dad think he might be gay ( in a sad irony and drivas himself die of aid at 47 ) and the soapy conflict be from the generation gap issue ( ahem and a if one may call 7 year a gap ) . sonny boy want to be his own man and dad want to pull him into the casino ( caesar palace . ) and and ply him with girl ( include the horny for money edy williams ) . interestingly enough and the son doesn not seem to mind be think of a gay unusual for the time and a cute brenda vaccarro be nearby to swoon platonically over him . what nudity there be be awfully lame just what be need to pull the audience in for an r rating in the early day of the mpaa rating system ( which then be g m r [ 16 ] and x ) . the editing be horrible and there stupid silly overdubs by the committee ( a late 60 neo avante garde comedy troupe that mercifully fade off the map within a couple of year ) . don rickles be on board a a blackjack dealer . seemingly prepare him for a role a a floor manager in the much good casino two decade later . not to give anything away and but they would have dealt with mr. rickles character with power tool and a hole in the desert back then . a curiosity at best and far from joshua logan usual caliber of work . do or dia . now go watch casino again .
