One of my three favorite Newman films and one of the best portrayals of alcoholism and it’s destruction of talent. Hope you cover Color Of Money at some point. Great read!
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.

I did! You can find part 2 of my look at The Hustler and my take on The Color of Money on my main page.
Ohh my bad. I must have missed it.
I’ll check it out. Thanks

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