Album Favorite

"Forever when I hear this song it moves me. I think it’s relatable to anyone really, whether they’re out there looking for themselves or someone else, or what’s after this life - I find it very moving. The Joshua Tree is my favourite U2 album - they just did an anniversary tour and I was heartbroken that I wasn’t able to go. “A few years ago I was filming in Toronto and I received an invite from Bono to see U2’s show. So I go along with my friend and I roll my eyes because the invite came through his PR and I thought, ‘Oh this invite isn’t actually from him, he doesn’t actually want me to come.’ But the show was just spiritual and magical - I was hypnotised. “The PR had also invited me to his after party, and again I was thinking, ‘is this really coming from him?’ I had to work the next day at 6am and it was already midnight, but I thought ‘you know what, this is a once in a lifetime experience.’ So we go, we wait for an hour and my friend tells me, ‘let’s just wait for 30 minutes more,’ And just then in strolls Bono - he walks over and sits with me and my friend for about three hours and we just chatted about everything - music, politics, family, spirituality. It was a really special experience. He’s always been a lead singer that I have looked up to and I had so much respect for him for doing that."

Based on a true story, Hustler's is the story of Destiny, an exotic dancer who falls on hard times. Teaming up with other dancers to con a number of rich bankers.
The premise of Hustler, strippers conning bankers, hides the actual depth of the story. At the start of the film, Destiny has just moved to a new strip club, we are shown the politics of the club and how Destiny befriends Ramona, one of the top dancers. Everything changes during the wall street crash, most of the club’s regular customers were bankers, most of whom had been affected by the crash had stopped going out and so a lot of the dancers lost their job. Destiny has a child but soon breaks up with the father and then find it hard to get a new job. Returning to the club, Destiny teams up with Ramona in scamming money out of the old clients.
One of the main themes of Hustlers is family, two of the main characters have children and the films shows what each of them would do to protect them. Beyond that we have the relationship between Destiny and her grandmother and also the family formed between the dancers and shows how these bonds can be formed and broken.
Being about strippers there is some nudity but Hustlers but they handle the sexual side of the dances job quite well.
The film is quite slow with a big part in the centre where not much seems to happen but it is still entertaining.
