grooveman’s review:
This film is all kinds of cool with Jef Costello being The Godfather of badass motherfuckers. Why did it take me so long to check this out!!!!! Man I hope they release a Criterion Blu-Ray of this as I'd be all over that. Question friends and fans of this movie. Is it just me or when buddy goes up to the door near the beginning where the dudes are playing cards, I swear he uses the same knock Leon teaches Mathilda as their secret code in Leon? Very cool if it is.
This movie rules for two reasons. 1. It is cooler than cool 2. It is a main influence on a lot of my favourite movies.
He is the definition of cool.
so cool.
Nice catch, you are right about the knocking code. I can't remember if I noticed it when I saw it.
Love this movie.
"Nothing to say."
"Not with a gun on me."
"That a habit?"
"A principle."
This dialog is going to end up Django Unchained, calling it now.
Very Possible Pat.
