Has anyone here seen a 1974 movie named "The California Split"? If so, was it any good?

I read about it in Amarillo Slim's book, he played a minor part in the movie.

it is an excellent film, one of robert altman's best, and one of the best movies about gambling ive ever seen, if not the best.

if you like california split you may also like nashville, that's his best film. some of his many other films however are extremely bad.

mash is good. the player and short cuts ok. gosford park was dreadful. the long goodbye and mccabe and mrs. miller are good. there are a couple other good ones. there are a handful i havent seen, ive seen a lot though including some that never made it to dvd or video.
