Memorable quote (s) from the movie:
J.J. Singleton (Ray Walston): I dunno know what to do with this guy, Henry. He's an Irishman who doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, and doesn't chase dames. He's a grand knight in the Knights of Columbus, and he only goes out to play faro. Sometimes plays 15 or 20 hours at a time, just him against the house.
Henry Gondorff (Paul Newman): Roulette? Craps?
J.J. Singleton (Ray Walston): He won't touch them. The croupier at Gilman's says he never plays anything he can't win.
Henry Gondorff (Paul Newman): Sports?
J.J. Singleton (Ray Walston): Likes to be seen with fighters sometimes, but he doesn't go to the fights or bet on them.
Henry Gondorff (Paul Newman): Jesus. Does he do anything where he's not alone?
J.J. Singleton (Ray Walston): Just poker. And he cheats. Pretty good at it, too.
