| User ReviewAshley HThe Mississippi Gambler is an excellent film. It is about an all-around adventurer who cuts quite a swath through antebellum New Orleans. Tyrone Power and Piper Laurie give amazing performances. The script is well written. Rudolph Mate did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the adventure and romance. The Mississippi Gambler is a must see. |
