Review of The Hustler (1961) by Artur C — 20 Jan 2011
One of Newman's best performances & one of the great sports fiilms, although like other great sports films, it is more about the characters!!! The story is very well-written & the cast is brilliant, while the direction is sharp & we are treated to some really impressive pool-playing.
But Newman's 'Fast' Eddie Felson's real depth & development is the main reason to watch it.
