Giles ,'Never Leave Me'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
SHOPPING! I haven't seen that one in years. Jonathan Pryce is in it too, I think.
Yup. He plays a cop.
Wouldn't have recognized any of them except Bean, and I can't remember him in it.
Jason Isaacs plays a small part as a fence, Sean Bean (in a a mullety hair cut) plays a bigger criminal and Sean Pertwee is Jude Law's antagonist, Tommy. He had much more chemistry with Sadie Frost when he was cutting her t-shirt with a straight razor.
I'm a huge Pertwee fan, though.
Isn't he Jon Pertwee (Doctor #3)'s son?
I just got caught up here, but another possible monologue suggestion is Quint's Indianapolis speech in Jaws.
Yup, that's him.
school-appropriate amazing movie monologues
Not from a movie, but how about Simon's speech about River in the second part of the Firefly pilot?
Natalie Portman's naked tush is more more curvy (in a good way) than I would have expected.
And it's Jon B with the most intersting random drive-by post of the night!!!
Thank yew! I'm here all night. Try the veal!

Maybe it was a stunt booty.
So who here has seen No Country for Old Men? It was totally awesomecakes! One thing that struck me is that many of the characters had that supreme confidence that the (other) bad guys wouldn't get them. And those that thunk that had all sorts of skills to back that attitude up. Kind of made you think that if the flick stuck to convention, that they'd be right, and they'd survive. But despite their confidence, the life of crime and guns and $2mil in a case is just too unpredictable, and they still met their ends. Contrast them with the sheriff, who also was ultra-competent and came from a long line of ultra-competent cops - some of which had been shot and even killed. The sheriff had the realistic view that despite all your skill you could still end up getting killed. In fact he explicitly states this when talking about the guy who was wounded when slaughtering the steer.
Anyway. Awesome flick.
