The Hustler obviously. Go watch it if you haven't. Gleason was the most impressive IMO.

Best of Paul Newmans early work
Also Piper Laurie and George C Scott were excellent

Haven’t seen The Duelist
But recommend The Gunfighter 1950 with Gregory Peck as Johnny Ringo

No, it's not The Hustler. If you're interested in a movie like The Hustler, try The Color of Money (1986) starring Tom Cruise as Vincent and Paul Newman as Fast Eddie Felson.
Yes, it is the sequel to The Hustler.
Paul Newman won an Oscar for his role...
Do you mean The Duellists, 1977, with Keith Carradine, Harvey Keitel, and Albert Finney? Winner of the Palm d'Or and Best First Work for Ridley Scott at Cannes?
No. Don't watch that one. It sucks...
Actually, it is quite good.

Yeah, I know.
Sarcasm doesn't translate well in the written word. I wasn't sure my first two sentences combined the third saying it "sucked" would convey my sarcasm, that's why I added Gene Wilder rolling his eyes...
Pretty sure I saw the Hustler by parental force when I was a kid when it came on TV on a rainy day but I recall nothing about it. Never even heard of the other one--does it involve Aaron Burr murdering someone?
