Review of The Hustler (1961) by Cody F — 26 Sep 2008
Fast Eddie, let's play some pool. I love this film, it's not only one of Newman's best, but it's defiantly the best thing Gleason has done(except for the Toy,classy). This is also when the Great C.
Scott was in his prime. Newman, Gleason, and Scott are so damn great in this film it is a shame that they didn't all their own films with these characters. I would pay good money for a 5 hour prequel film about how Eddie, Fats, and Bert got started in life and all end up together at the end.
Greatness!
