Poker

Poker is a 1988 French drama-thriller film directed by Catherine Corsini. The picture stars Caroline Cellier and Pierre Arditi in the leading roles, with a supporting ensemble that includes François Berléand, Jacques Mathou, Jean-Philippe Écoffey, André Julien and Dominique Reymond. Taking its title from the famous card game, the film blends elements of crime and suspense within a dramatic framework. Although detailed accounts of its storyline are scarce in available sources, the production stands as one of Corsini's early works behind the camera, before she became one of the most recognized voices in contemporary French cinema. The film remains a representative example of French genre filmmaking of the late 1980s, notable above all for the strength of its cast.
