"Yank My Doodle, It's a Dandy",,,, but I think that was a porn flick about a cheesy tourney.

Stickmen is the worse movie I saw that was a pool movie. So bad you must watch it for the experience.

Kiss Shot with Whoopi Goldberg. At least I think it's bad, I couldn't get past watching her play pool.

Agreed 100%. This movie was the fruit cake in pool's Christmas, the unwanted pair of socks from your aunt Mille under pool's Christmas Tree, the tooth brush in pool's bag of Halloween candy, the DUI check point on pool's New Years eve, the Cam Newton in pool's Superbowl post game interview. This movie was awful

Well....

The pool movies portray pool players in a negative and shady way. They all show pool player being less then honest. The only reason The Hustler and Color of money were any good at all was because of George C. Scott, Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason.

What pool movie ever portrays pool players in a positive manner? Just saying.....

The Hustler =

Classic movie. A small percentage of pool but great in it's own way. This is Ames. Color of money was totally different. Not bad not great. You don't deserve the Balabushka.

You close with a very good question.

However, you forgot Piper Laurie's role in The Hustler. She was nominated for an Oscar, and deserved it in my opinion. (I love women pool players, actors, and in general.)
