1 00:01:54,083 --> 00:01:56,083 It had been years 2 00:01:57,208 --> 00:01:59,625 since I'd seen anyone play like that. 3 00:02:01,916 --> 00:02:06,541 Actually, maybe I've never seen anyone play like him. 4 00:02:09,916 --> 00:02:12,958 It wasn't so much the technique of the game that impressed me, 5 00:02:13,166 --> 00:02:16,583 although it was perfect, like that of Scuro... 6 00:02:18,750 --> 00:02:21,166 It was... 7 00:02:21,375 --> 00:02:23,375 the music. 8 00:02:23,958 --> 00:02:26,333 This is what came out of his shots. 9 00:02:27,416 --> 00:02:29,583 Toc! 10 00:02:29,791 --> 00:02:33,708 The balls that raced on the green cloth had a different sound. 11 00:02:33,958 --> 00:02:35,958 They obeyed him. 12 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,666 They were happy to obey him. 13 00:02:39,916 --> 00:02:42,125 Have you ever seen pool balls with a smile? 14 00:02:42,375 --> 00:02:45,208 Is it true that the Tuscan beat Scuro? 15 00:02:45,458 --> 00:02:49,291 During that period, beating Scuro was considered impossible. 16 00:02:50,083 --> 00:02:53,125 But the Tuscan did it. He beat him. 17 00:02:53,375 --> 00:02:57,791 - Here, on Scuro's pool table. - I saw it. 18 00:02:58,041 --> 00:03:01,833 - I even saw the balls smile. - Yes.
