Review of The Hustler (1961) by Kim B — 06 Aug 2015
This fil is proof that Hollywood produced more in the 1950-60s than just colorful musicals.
Paul Newman as Fast Eddie Felsen, one of the character that made him famous and for which he could win an Oscar.
Piper Laurie as Oscar nominated plays the doomed love interest. Standout performances come from Jackie Gleason, breaking his Ralph Cramden persona to play a hustler, and most notably George C. Scott, as Newman's oily manager.
