  • @1jalv I come away with a different piece of poo.

  • @liduck52 We planned it on the train together remember? Criss cross. You kill my wife; I kill yours! It'll be like nuthin' ever happened see?

  • Genius!!!

  • Beautiful parallel editing and the use of shots that seem to mirror each other. By the way, Bruno Anthony wears the ugliest shoes in the world.

  • @liduck52 Metcalf is Danbury CT, the station is now a museum.

  • I got a better question. Where is Metcalf and why would anyone want to go there?

  • If you're a student and need a good academic source on this opening look at Douglas Pye "Movies and Tone" in Close-Up 02.

  • This is an extremely useful resource for studying film, and you couldn't have picked a better film

  • This is certainly one of his best movies.
