What is your all time favorite pool movie?

Do a forum search this poll's been done to death. Hustler always wins.

I could watch Hustler, TCOM and PHJ all day though. Baron and the kid was decent. The rest suck.

Okay sorry about that, looks like I need to do my research better

"the Baltimore Bullet" needs to be in the list. I can't vote for "other"

The Baltimore Bullet was great although I like all pool related movies.
Does anyone remember a pool related film from the 70s or 80s that took place in Australia ( I think )? All I remember is some guillotine device mounted on the rails (for removing fingers) and white cloth on the tables so the blood splatters showed up real good.

I had to vote TCOM although I think The Hustler is a classic. The Hustler just wasn't my favorite because the content was so depressing. A movie about an ultra-talented man that drinks himself to stupidity and a woman who kills herself will not often endear itself to me.

Let's see, this is the fifth time I've voted for the 'Hustler' since last Tuesday.
Just kidding. Don't worry about it. :wink:
