The Color of Money
The Hustler isn't what he used to be. But he has the next best thing. A kid who is.
Tom Cruise ’80s Movie Star Series Episode 5
This ain’t pool. This is for bangers.
Cruise learns to drive stick as his movie career races into the big leagues with The Color of Money – his Oscar winning 1986 collaboration with Paul Newman and Martin Scorsese. Sure the show-off has all the right moves to dominate a pool table. But will he ever listen to original hustler Fast Eddie Felson, and throw enough games to hook the rich saps who call themselves players? And what will happen when the protegee faces his master in a climactic 9 ball tournament? Now Playing is ready to break it all down when you bet on Tom Cruise this Spring.
