About this event
Former pool hustler 'Fast Eddie' Felson (Paul Newman) wants to hang up his day job and return to the game – so he decides to take the talented but inexperienced Vincent Lauria (Tom Cruise) under his wing.
As pair tour pool halls alongside Vincent's loyal girlfriend (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio), Eddie teaches Vincent the tricks of the trade to great success. But his frustration with his partner's showboat antics inspires Fast Eddie to make an unlikely comeback of his own.
A sequel to Robert Russen's 1961 sports drama The Hustler, The Color of Money provides the irresistible pairing of two generations' brightest movie stars.
