Play It to the Bone (film) Best friends and professional boxing rivals Vince Boudreau and Caesar Dominguez have not worked in years. Finally, from out of the blue, they get the chance of a lifetime: an assignment to work together in Las Vegas. The job promises big money, but there’s a hitch: they have to be there immediately. They quickly hit the road with Grace Pasic at the wheel, embarking on a circuitous route through the sizzling desert. Sparks fly as the competitive Vince and Caesar antagonize each other to a frenzy matched only by Grace’s own combative temper.
