Out of all the people in movies that played an expert pool player no one ever nailed it like Jackie Gleason in The Hustler. Classic film, as someone who can play a little you can see that Gleason was legit. Smooth stroke and looked like a real player. If you haven’t seen the movie check it out. It’s a real gem.
