    “…All according to the law.”

    Klaus Kinski stole the mf show but this was pretty freakin awesome across the board—love a good wintery setting that’s truly cold to its core. fascinating that there’s 2 alternate endings for this and Corbucci went with THAT one. entirely emotionally dissatisfying yet its applicability to the present day is undeniable. also, the Morricone score at ~20 min left is SO GOOD.

    safe to say I finally understand the cowboy appeal too gosh darn 😍🤤 never trashing the Western genre again if the leads are gonna look like thattt

    what’s the difference between a large breasted lobster and a dirty old bus stop?

    one’s a busty crustacean & the other’s a crusty bus station 🫳🎤

    fairly bored of religious fanaticism in movies at this point (either due to oversaturation or my own overconsumption), but this has to be THE blueprint. possibly the most visually arresting b&w film I’ve ever seen. deeply unnerving portrayal of a (based on real life!) villain. and the SCORE 😍

    yeah whatever, we all got dark sides and Freudian impulses. not that groundbreaking. I grew up in the suburbs too and I’m sure if I tried hard enough I could’ve found an ear somewhere. best believe I wouldn’t be picking it up with my bare fingers though 😟😟
