"With 'The Color of Money' (1986), working with two big stars [Paul Newman & Tom Cruise], we tried to make a Hollywood movie. Or rather, I tried to make one of my pictures, but with a Hollywood star: Paul Newman." --- Martin Scorsese Full Excerpt: "After 'The Last Temptation' was cancelled in 1983, I had to get myself back in shape. Work out. And this was working out. First 'After Hours' (1985), on a small scale. The idea was that I should be able, if 'Last Temptation' ever came along again, to make it like 'After Hours', because that’s all the money I’m gonna get for it. Then the question was: Are you going to survive as a Hollywood filmmaker? Because even though I live in New York, I’m a “Hollywood director.” Then again, even when I try to make a Hollywood film, there’s something in me that says, “Go the other way.” With 'The Color of Money' (1986), working with two big stars, we tried to make a Hollywood movie. Or rather, I tried to make one of my pictures, but with a Hollywood star: Paul Newman. That was mainly making a film about an American icon. That’s what I zeroed in on. I’m mean, Paul’s face! You know, I’m always trying to get the camera to move fast enough into an actor’s face—a combination of zoom and fast track—without killing him! Well, in 'The Color of Money' there’s the first time Paul sees Tom Cruise and says, ’’That kid’s got a dynamite break,” and turns around and the camera comes flying into his face. Anyway, that night, we looked at the rushes and saw four takes of this and said, “That man’s gonna go places! He’s got a face!” (Martin Scorsese's interview with Harlan Jacobson, FIlm Comment, 1988)
