The Gambler

Career-spanning retrospective look at one of country music's most familiar icons; the gravel-voiced seller of fried chicken himself, Mr. Kenny Rogers. From Rogers' earliest days in showbiz as a member of folk singing group The New Christy Minstrels, through his days as a psychedelic hippie in his band The First Edition to his final rebirth as a be-suited country troubadour, this documentary covers it all. Known to many only for hits such as 'Lucille' 'Coward of the County' and his big duet with Dolly Parton 'Islands in the Stream' there's a lot more to Kenny Rogers, one of country music's most successful solo artists ever. As well as owning a chain or ribs n' chicken shops that give Colonel Sanders a run for his money, he's co-written hits with Lionel Ritchie, The Bee Gees and many more. Concert footage is interspersed with comments from Kenny himself and some industry heavyweights he's worked with over the years.

Stopping briefly in a small Texas town, an itinerant race car driver finds that his stock car, on a trailer behind his motor home, has just been quickly and expertly stripped. He chases down the miscreants, who turn out to be six orphan children. He has no recourse to the law, for the corrupt local sheriff takes most of the proceeds of their thievery in exchange for not putting them in an orphanage. They are charming rogues who are in turn charmed by him. Disliking their arrangement with the sheriff, they stow away with him, and he finds himself becoming a reluctant stepfather. Thanks to their enthusiasm and incredible mechanical know-how, he begins to make a name for himself on the racing circuit. But the sheriff doesn't take kindly to losing his extra income...
