Review of The Hustler (1961) by Eric M — 24 Apr 2009
A haunting and powerful character study featuring Paul Newman in one of his finest performances. A first-rate screenplay, solid direction, gorgeous cinematography and a strong supporting cast (particularly George C.
Scott as a sleazy manager and Jackie Gleason as the legendary Minnesota Fats) all contribute to making this a timeless classic.
