In this TV-movie, Shirley Jones plays an average American housewife who just happens to
be addicted to gambling. The story chronicles how her problem is destroying her "ideal"
suburban life and that of her family. It's a stretch to say that the picture is a remake of "The
Lady Gambles", but certain elements of that classic Stanwyck flick are present here.
