Anyone else think Ginger is the most insufferable female character ever? Ace gives her EVERYTHING, he offers her the world, and all she has to do is be a mother. But she cant go 5 seconds without doing something stupid to betray his trust and being a complete psycho.
I get that every character in the film is flawed, but none is more aggravating than hers. She is constantly being a greedy manipulative liar plotting to screw over the one person who cares about her, and then she gets offended when she gets called out on it.
Anyway, it's a good film.
You’ve never been married, have you?
Ahah, well, in this case, we can say that the actress talentedly played her role, since you felt such strong emotions.

Ginger is the one element of chaos that Ace embraces, which ultimately brings his house of cards down. She warns him not to fall in love with her, but Ace is a gambler by nature. The first scene we see her in, she is working angles and robbing her john blind. She is what I call an operator - someone who has been forced to survive for so long by any means necessary - often nefarious - that they are incapable of seeing past their own daily Survival Needs (the bottom rung on Maslow's pyramid). Stone's portrayal isn't supposed to be remotely sympathetic - she calls her scumbag pimp on her wedding day for God's sake - but Ace can only see her as a person he will eventually bring under control and fill the hole in his heart that running a casino for the mob will never fill. The more I watch it, the more I respect Sharon Stone for being willing to go so dark and ugly with her - it's a serio-comic tour de force that has aged incredibly well.
PS I just spent a week in Vegas and ironically, the giant corporate family casinos that were replacing Ace's Vegas at the end of Casino are even more antiquated than places like the Tangiers. It's the first time I felt like 3/4 of the Strip needs to be bulldozed and replaced by something that doesn't resemble a cross between a theme park and the current and late 80s version of Times Square. Ace Rothstein wouldn't even recognize the place today.
