Director Martin Scorsese narrates his opening, in which Paul Newman, in his Academy Award-winning performance reprising "Fast Eddie Felson," from The Hustler, 1961, is introduced, along with Helen Shaver and John Turturro, in The Color Of Money, 1986, also starring Tom Cruise.

Impressed with the talents of Vincent (Tom Cruise), Eddie Felson (Paul Newman, in his Academy Award performance) begins introducing him, with girlfriend Carmen (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio), to some of the other components of pool hustling, in Martin Scorsese's The Color Of Money, 1986.
