Josh Bennett is back to talk about another 90's (in this case, early 2000's) Tarantino-inspired film. “Poolhall Junkies” was written by two real pool hustlers who were trying to hustle each other, then decided to write a script based on thier personal experiences. Although never directly stated, this film was one of many that was heavily inspired by Quentin Tarantino after his massive success in the 90's. The film was set up for a sequel involving card sharks, but life happens, and the idea was scrapped.

Ted, Shawn and Jake are back to discuss a movie from Ted's past as they tackle Poolhall Junkies.

Who doesn't love a good pool hustler movie? Who doesn't love a Walken movie? Who doesn't love Ricky Freaking Shcroder??? Sorry..."Rick" Schroder. This movie has all that and more...and less in many ways. The guys go back and forth a lot on this one, but it's a pretty good discussion on Poolhall Junkies. 

In this episode, Paul, Whit and Mike are joined by Remote Ryan to discuss Poolhall Junkies, which is in fact a movie which is all about the world of pool and the art of the hustle. Listen as Paul experiences what it is like to sit in Whit's chair, and defends one of his favorite films with every inadvertent con. They also taste and discuss the classic Jack and Coke cocktail as well as Killian's Irish Red. ⁠https://www.1bourbon1movie1beer.com/⁠⁠ Find us on social media: ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ @1bourbon_1movie_1beer ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/1bourbon1movie1beer ⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠ @1movie_1beer Check out our sponsor ⁠⁠Myaderm⁠⁠ and use code BMB to save 20% off of your first purchase at ⁠⁠myaderm.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/1bourbon1movie1beer/message

Writer, director, and star of the hit film Poolhall Junkies, Mars Callahan is currently in pre production for the movie's sequel, Poker Junkies. Inspired by the sweeping popularity of Texas Hold'em tournaments and the ever growing World Series of Poker, held in Las Vegas each year, Mars Callahan tells the story of an unknown card player who wants to take on the biggest names in the poker world. Struggling to raise the WSOP tournament buy-in fee of $10,000, Mars Callahan's characters are taken on a tour of high stakes games from the top clubs to the back room. True to a long tradition of directors assuming small roles in their own films, Mars Callahan has appeared in each of his movies. While he starred in Poolhall Junkies, he originally intended to play the role of Joe, the younger brother. However, after a long delay, Callahan felt he no longer fit the younger brother role, and assumed the lead role of Johnny. Fascinatingly, no special effects were included in the filming of Poolhall Junkies, as Mars Callahan is a pool enthusiast and longtime player. For Poker Junkies, Callahan again wrote about a beloved hobby of his. To write a better script and accurately portray the poker world, Mars Callahan recently entered the World Series of Poker Tournament, placing 94th out of thousands of players.   In this episode, Mars and Brad discuss Mars' story, evolution, his film career, and how his childhood became a reality from then to now.    00:00 Intro 01:24 Mars' background and family 06:14 “I wanna do the thing that makes my Mom smile.” - Mars Callahan 13:00 The value films bring to Mars 17:25 The craft of writing 19:10 Christopher Walken 20:34 When someone 30 years in the movie industry endorses you 22:00 Manifestation 30:00 Jazz and filmmaking 34:40 “The act of searching kept me alive.” - Mars Callahan 40:20 Loving people who may have done something terrible.

Bronx-born and raised Chazz Palminteri was a natural choice to continue the Italianate torch in film. In the tradition set forth in the 1970s by such icons as director Martin Scorsese and actors Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, John Cazale, and Joe Pesci, Palminteri has brought grit, muscle, and an evocative realism to the sidewalks of his New York neighborhood, violent as they are and were. Chazz was born Calogero Lorenzo Palminteri in 1952 in the Bronx, New York, the son of Rose, a homemaker, and Lorenzo Palminteri, a bus driver. He grew up in a tough area of the Bronx, giving him the life lessons that would later prove very useful to his career. He graduated from Theodore Roosevelt High School and started out pursuing his craft in 1973 studying at the Actor's Studio. He appeared off-Broadway in the early 1980s while paying his dues as a bouncer and doorman in nightclubs, among other jobs. In 1986 he headed west and found that his ethnic qualifications were well-suited for getting tough-talker parts. Slick attorneys, unflinching hoods, and hard-nosed cops were all part of his ethnic streetwise persona in such TV shows as Wiseguy (1987), Matlock (1986), and Hill Street Blues (1981). In films, he started off playing a 1930s-style gangster in Sylvester Stallone's Oscar (1991). Although his roles were sharp, well-acted, and with a distinct edge to them, there was nothing in them to show that he was capable of stronger leading parts.In 1988 he wrote for himself a play entitled "A Bronx Tale," a powerful one-man stage commentary in which he depicted his bruising childhood in great detail, which included witnessing gangland slayings. Palminteri brought each and every character to life (18 in all) in this autobiographical piece -- his friends, enemies, even his own family. He showcased for years in both Los Angeles and New York, finally sparking the interest of his film idol, Robert De Niro. DeNiro, wanting to direct for the first time, saw the potential of this project and brought both it and the actor/writer to the screen. Palminteri played one of the flashier roles, Sonny, a gangster, in the movie version. An unknown film commodity at the time, Chazz had stubbornly refused to sell his stage property (the offers went into the seven figures) unless he was part of the package as both actor and screenwriter. DeNiro, who became his mentor, backed him up all the way, and the rest is history. A Bronx Tale (1993), which featured his actress/producer/wife Gianna Palminteri, earned strong reviews.At age 41 Palminteri had become an "overnight" star. Other important projects quickly fell his way. He received a well-deserved Oscar nomination the following year for his portrayal of a Runyonesque hitman in Woody Allen's hilarious jazz-era comedy Bullets Over Broadway (1994). He was on the right side of the law in both The Perez Family (1995), his first romantic lead, and then the classic crimer The Usual Suspects (1995). He played the ill-fated brute in Diabolique (1996) and wrote a second screenplay, Faithful (1996), in which he again plays a hitman, terrorizing both Cher and Ryan O'Neal.Though Palminteri was invariably drawn into a rather tight-fitting, often violent typecast, it has been a secure and flashy one that continues to run strong into the millennium. Surprisingly, the one obvious show he missed out on was HBO's The Sopranos (1999). True to form his trademark flesh-lipped snarl was spotted in gritty urban settings playing a "Hell's Kitchen" cop in One-Eyed King (2001) starring actor/producer Armand Assante; a pool hustler and mentor in Poolhall Junkies (2002); a mob boss in In the Fix (2005); a dirty cop in Running Scared (2006); the titular scam artist as Yonkers Joe (2008); a karaoke-loving Italian psychiatrist in Once More with Feeling (2009); and an abusive husband and father in Mighty Fine (2012).Other millennium filming includes starring presences in Body Armour (2007), The Dukes (2007), the title conman as Yonkers Joe (2008), Once More with Feeling (2009), and Mighty Fine (2012), as well as prime, supports in Running Scared (2006), A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints (2006), Push (2006), Jolene (2008), Once Upon a Time in Queens (2013), Legend (2015), Vault (2019), Clover (2020). TV crime continues to occupy his time as well, clocking in such series' credits as Kojak (2005), Rizzoli & Isles (2010), and Godfather of Harlem (2019). Occasionally he will lighten up -- as in his recurring role as Shorty on the popular sitcom Modern Family (2009).CONNECT WITH CHAZZ & LISTEN TO HIS PODCAST: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chazzpalminteri/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100044149433522 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9-sgcuDI-X9lbYt9PC3Bag Podcast: http://hyperurl.co/ChazzPalminteriShow Website: https://chazzpalminteri.net/pages/podcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/chazzpalminteri Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE!

On this episode of DID YOU EVEN WATCH IT? we discuss the movie 'Poolhall Junkies"DID YOU EVEN WATCH IT? is a PODCAST by three brothers and a best Mate, where we talk about one of our biggest passions, movies. In particular, movies that are seen by critics and/or fans as flops/failures/average that we enjoyed or simply movies that we don't think have gotten the notoriety or praise that they deserve. Each week we will pick a different movie to discuss and talk about things we love about the movie, the actors, favourite scenes, quotes, behind the scenes trivia and even parts of the movies that didn't make sense or could have been done better. Maybe we find listeners that agree with us and maybe even change people's minds on some movies or think we are crazy for loving these movies.

Anson Mount (Hell on Wheels, Star Trek: Discovery, Poolhall Junkies) opens up about how his father’s death impacted him at thirteen years old, how horribly picked on he was in school, and losing his virginity at fourteen. Anson discusses his role as Captain Pike on Star Trek, the time his ringtone went off during a scene with Christopher Walken, and his trip to Mexico with Gary Busey.

Kenny and Brandon endure the indie-crime-drama-comedy 'Poolhall Junkies,' in which Walken plays a supporting role as an eccentric millionaire involved in high-stakes pool hustling.

Mars makes moneyRC-2013-117: Poolhall Junkies (2002) Your browser does not support this audio Grab a cuestick (hopefully a non-graphite one) and let's play some with the greatest pool movie of all time! Well, okay, it's a pool movie, anyway. And just as Mars Callahan's directorial debut vacillates between Farrelly brothers-style comedy and over-cranked melodrama so too does my commentary shift from poolroom subculture nitpicking to a slightly more charitable assessment of the script. Along the way, I take time to marvel at the surplus of supporting characters, sigh at the zany plot contrivances, and gripe about the film's inconsistent ethos regarding the N-word. Forget pool—this movie had me at Ernie Reyes Jr.I screened the Region-1 DVD.
