My Hustler (1965)

Review by Tgrain

My Hustler

6/10

Part one goes somewhere. Part two doesn't.

This is one of those 'let's make a movie on the weekend and see what happens' experiments. The results, as one may expect in such situations, are mixed: part one where the hustler is pursued while his client watches on has suspense and the unconventional camera treatment is interesting. The improved dialog led by Ed Hood is funny and inventive. Once Ed Hood leaves the scene, it gets way more boring as two hustlers just jabber about aimlessly half naked, until he returns.

But hey, it's Andy Warhol and he had a name, plus lots of gay men wanted to see other gay men (this was the mid sixties after all), so that was enough to get people interested. You need to have more than that these days. Still, as a time capsule it's also amusing to watch. Morrissey used the film to get his technical chops together, in preparation for his directing projects.
