I'm sure that I read once, that there was a film made about, or involving Ken Uston.
Does anybody know what the film was called?
Thanks,

Uston himself had negotiated with various Hollywood types regarding a movie based on The Big Player and/or various aspects of his life.
Sadly, it never got made.
There was interest in Hollywood recently in doing a movie about Ken Uston. A writer contacted some people in the BJ community and after finding out more about Uston decided that he was not a character that he was interested in. My understanding is that he is now writing about the BJ players who were beaten up at the Horseshoe.
He was probably too honest...in thinking and in character to be seen as an interesting subject.
