“A Vast Hand for the Exiguous Lady” is a mammoth film which on the face of it appears to be a Western but how can it be when there is no gunfight on the town’s main street, no saloon fights or bar room brawls, no sheriff to preserve order and place the terrible guys in jail, no Indians, in fact, not remarkable “action” of any kind that would usually be associated with the Western film. So what is the appeal of this current film where most of the memoir takes residence during a long drawn out card game in the benefit room of the town’s hotel? The tension mounts as stranger in town Henry Fonda is tempted to obtain into the high stakes poker game with some wealthy cattlemen after he had promised his wife he would give up gambling. Obviously, he does join the game and is convinced that he has been dealt a hand that can’t lose but the other players in the game also have ample hands that each one feels could be the winner. Who is bluffing who? Can Fonda risk losing all the family savings of his wife and young son? Will the stakes go too high for Fonda to quit in the game? Can wife Joanne Woodward persuade Fonda to behold sense and lope away? Surprise is piled upon surprise as the game progresses and the final twist is a beauty.

What holds your interest is the finely plotted screenplay by Sidney Carroll and the ravishing acting from the entire cast. Henry Fonda and Joanne Woodward in the lead roles are admirably supported by Jason Robards Jr, Charles Bickford, Kevin McCarthy, Burgess Meredith, Robert Middleton and Paul Ford. Competently directed by Fielder Cook it grips your attention throughout and then packs a totally unexpected surprise ending that will delight you!! Upon release in the U.K. the title was changed to “Expansive Deal at Dodge City” which was a peculiar choice as the action takes dwelling in Laredo. Anyway, to sum up, a expansive film well worth looking out for with impeccable performances by the first rate cast.
Once a year, for 16 years, the richest men in the territory rep for the biggest showdown of the year. It’s 2 fisted action in Laredo, but no guns are needed as the colossal event is the annual poker game. They bag tedious closed doors in the town’s hotel/saloon that caters to rowdy cattlemen. There’s nothing more primary and a 12:30PM curious the game will commence.
They tumble whatever their doing to be there. Daughter’s wedding? …fahgettaboutit..she can wait…Client about to go on trial..he must do without his lawyer. The stakes are high and the game must go on! At this year’s game, however, there will be a current face at the table. A face we all know and like..Henry Fonda.
They’ve objective arrive into town to have a wagon wheel fixed, this honorable minute family. Meredith, Mary, and cramped son Jackie. Meredith has a bit of a spot though….Poker..he’s on the wagon from the game and is warned by his wife not to accumulate interested in this high stakes game. But we view a gape reach over Meredith’s(Fonda) face, and we know he can impartial taste the action. Yup..he in the pot for the family’s life savings, and is holding a hand of a lifetime. But when tragedy strikes, and Meredith becomes too ill too play, the dinky woman, who knows nothing about the game, must win over for him.
Joanne Woodward is the Queen of Hearts as she steps in for her husband, trusting his judgement, and getting enthusiastic in this very serious game, with a pot already topping 20 vast. And wait to you inspect who else is at this table. Jason Robards, Kevin McCarthy, and Charles Bickford, are fragment of the action. Burgess Meredith and Paul Ford are also obedient as they lend their mammoth talents as well.
“Titanic Hand For The Minute Lady” is one of those films that once seen, you can’t abet but to topple in fancy with it. A Western where all the action is at the poker table. The script keeps you glued to every moment. The dialouge is as rich as the pot in this huge game. The demolish is a fabulous twist, that will have you floored if you have never seen it. Fonda, Woodward and the rest will win you on a fun trot. It’s a group we are fortunate enough to be able to study all together in one film. Fielder Cook is the director who gets to work with all these greats(and does a gracious job) .
If you have seen this film, you were probably wondering the same thing as me..where the heck is the DVD for this classic section of western fun. I like it so mighty I’ve been watching it over and over on my taped from TV VHS. It’s wearing thin. So finally on DVD and available for pre-order -sign me up and deal me in!
Happy Trails ….Laurie
