If you have a TV and a DVD player you should immediately go out and rent “Casino.” It stars Robert DeNiro, Sharon Stone, and Joe Pesci and is an only moderately fictionalized account of the downfall of the Las Vegas Mafia. It’s a great movie, one of the classics, and, along with the lurid stuff, shows how the casino business worked, and works, to fleece its customers, get them to like it, and get them to come back for more. You might also be able to get some old History Channel reruns to show what the actual history was. You’ll be surprised how close the movie stays to the history.

Good grief—I left out the link to the videos I recommended. Sorry!

I could probably rent it on Direct TV. That is my wife’s TV source. I watch almost NO TV.
