If you loved Jesus Christ Superstar, try The Cincinnati Kid
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Norman Jewison, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Jesus Christ Superstar, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Cincinnati Kid is
The Hustler if pool was poker. A Depression-era card sharp looks to make his name by taking down the game's best. Steve McQueen's icy cool burns bright.
