Review of The Hustler (1961) by Justin T — 11 Oct 2011
Spectacular sports movie centered around Newmans magnificent performance as the talented pool player who doesnt know when to quit. It isn't what I expected, there isnt that much pool in this film, the little there is though is magical.
What drives the audience through the running time is Fast Eddie's journey, from talented bum to a humble but bonafide pool god.
