Paul Newman has an almost permanent cheeky smile for a large portion of this film, and exudes a kind of childish glee when he’s playing pool. Kind of like he has a high from playing pool. And the arrogance… oh, the arrogance!
I didn’t quite follow the point of parts of the film, perhaps it was a little too deep for me. Especially what happens in the hotel near the end. I wasn’t quite expecting *that* to happen…
Another good film.
I give it 8/10
