...scenes, Tilly gives by far the best performance in the film, using her acting skills and gambling know-how to capture the sassiness and charisma of a professional poker player. If Cates had left Laak, Esfandiari, and Tilly to their own game of poker and simply kept the camera rolling, he would have made a more interesting film than “Deal.” These players, known for their personalities, would have been far more dynamic than the dull Stillman and Vinson, who undergo very little change or growth throughout this unsuccessful coming-of-age story.

David Rubinger bought his first Leica camera in 1946 for 200 cigarettes and a can of coffee. For a poor Jewish soldier in the British army, that was a fortune. But today, Israel is certainly the richer for it: Rubinger has focused his compassionate eye on the human dramas and towering personalities that have shaped Israel's 60 years since independence.

What it was, however, was an example of the kind of promise that can’t be easily recouped after a network makes a rash cancellation. “Jezebel James” was a traditional three-camera sitcom created and written by Amy Sherman-Palladino, best known as the creator of “Gilmore Girls.” It starred two terrific actresses, indie darling Parker Posey (as neurotic children’s-book editor Sarah) and “Six Feet Under” daughter...
