CASINO - A DRAMA
Genre - Drama/ thriller
Location - A Casino
In the opening sequence:
It'll start with the a group of older men, smoking cigars and drinking some whiskey all sat around a roulette spinner. There's clearly some tension between 2 of them, when the roulette spinner tell's them to put their counters on the board one looks at the other questionable and anxiously and the other is smirking and looking superioir. The one with a higher status smirks and nods and so the other one puts all his counters on one single number. As the roulette starts spinning we get two different shots. One is a close up of the ball spinning and the other is of the woman getting ready - as the ball gets quicker the shots get shorter. The shot of the woman would be putting on a long red dress and doing her makeup, some of these shots could be in slow motion. As the roulette ball comes to a stop, one of the men looks defeated and the other looks proud and smug (the man who was anxious is the one who looks defeated). Thewoman arrives at the casino and the man who won stands up to greet her while the other goes home.
The backstory and the rest of the plot:
The man who lost the bet was currently in a relationship with thewoman, but owed the other a lot of money. The agreement was that if he won the game that he would pay him the money back, but if he didn't, that he had to end things and the woman would then marry him and all his debt would be gone. For the rest of the story the man is depressed and alone but eventually goes back to the casino - wins the money and gets his wife back.
