Martin Scorsese has directed a lot of hits, and a few downright classics, but there are also a few semi-forgotten gems in his filmography, the best of which is The Color of Money (1986). It was a weird move for the already accomplished director: a movie about pool hustlers starring an aging Paul Newman and a up-and-coming Tom Cruise and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio that's actually a long-delayed sequel to a film Newman starred in back in 1961, The Hustler.
Newman reprises his role as Fast Eddie Felson at a very different point in his life than when we last saw him squaring off in marathon games of straight pool with Jackie Gleason's Minnesota Fats. It's a bit of a slow burn with an unconventional protagonist and an ending that leaves you feeling good but a little hollow inside, too. Take a deep dive into this forgotten classic with us!
