Second viewing; first viewed on April 5, 1992
Informal English Title: Go to Work, Vagabond
Several exploits of a scam artist. He envisions a grand scam consisting of promoting the comeback of two retired pool players for a (rigged) revenge match.
Mildly impaired viewing due to a poor understanding of dialogue. Anyway, The Hustler this ain't, and the relative success it enjoyed in Brazil is no doubt due to its pandering to that country's affection for its own moral maladies. To be fair, however, there is a certain liveliness to the proceedings and some picturesqueness in the location shooting.
