The "provocative and powerful" (The Hollywood Reporter) masterpiece is now a two-disc Collector's St! Featuring a new on-camera interview with Paul Newman and over five hours of special features, this is the definitive edition of the landmark film which propelled Newman to the top ranks of Hollywood and introduced the world to one of cinema's most indelible characters - Fast Eddie Felson. With his boyish grin and laid-back good looks, Fast Eddie Felson has fleeced his share of pool-hall gamblers. Now the brash pool shark is after the king of the cue stick: Minnesota Fats (Jackie Gleason). But after losing to Fats in a grueling, 36-hour match, Eddie hits the skids. Only the intervention of a ruthless gambler (George C. Scott) - who stakes his claim to Eddie's soul - can teach this hustler the cruel art of winning.
