I don't remember the movie being particularly good, but the Walken monologue stuck with me...

To get it under a minute I had to trim out his characteristic pauses/cadence…lol

Facts about the film:

One: It was first screened in June 2002 at the CineVegas International Film Festival and then received its wider distribution on 28 February 2003. I liked the Walken monologue so I chose to include in the daily updates. Sue me.

Two: The many pool trick shots are real and do not use film editing or other similar techniques. Writer, Director, Star, Mars Callahan is an accomplished pool player but got trick shot expert Mike Massey and pro-player Robert “Cotton” LeBlanc to perform many many of the shots.
