The Killing of a Chinese Bookie
Cosmo Vittelli runs a seedy, low-rent Hollywood cabaret with a genuine affection for the women who strip in his peepshows and for the staff who keep his dingy venue running. He also battles a serious gambling problem that has tripped him up before. After a brutal loss at an underground casino controlled by mobster Mort, he can't settle the debt. Mort then offers him a path to repay his debt by knocking off a pesky, Mafia-protected bookie.
