I've never seen this movie, and shame on me. I am very interested in the idea of flow and how you relate it to Gladwell's assertions here. This is shit I think about all the time. Thank you for this piece. Well written.

Thanks! The book is terrific, too--and what's great is that you can read and then watch or watch and then read.

Fantastic write-up! I've seen the film countless times but never read the novel. Your post has motivated me to pick up a copy.

Another Pages-and-Frames home run. The application of CM's flow theories to Fast Eddie Felson is apt, illuminating, and deftly accomplished, as usual.
