Paul Newman’s representation of hustler and pool connoisseur Eddie Felson is inimitable, portraying the character in all his conniving and gambling glory right to down the last cue-tip. Eddie sports an array of 80s-inspired suits, with padded shoulders and dramatic collars, however, nothing topped his look behind the pool table. With his suit jacket off, braces, top button of his white shirt undone and his sleeves rolled up, he is cool, relaxed and ready to work. It is acceptable for very few to wear sunglasses indoors, but for Fast Eddie’s risk-taking and enviably nonchalant demeanour, he’s on the money.
