• Episode 33: The Hustler

  In this episode, Sarah and MJ talk about a film that is neither on Scorsese's list of companion films, nor is it a film he directed. However, The Color of Money is a sequel to The Hustler, and your illustrious co-hosts love to yap. So, they decided to do an episode dedicated to the first film in the Fast Eddie Felson saga, The Hustler. They talk about 1 vs. 1 competitions, the ambitious nature of the film, and the hottest person to ever walk the Earth, Paul Newman.
