    [takes one sip of whiskey after 30 years] “I will kill you and everyone you’ve ever loved.” 

    It’s crazy to me that Clint was 62 in 1992. Even funnier that Unforgiven was supposed to be his swan song but 33 years later he just refuses to stop making movies or die. 

    RIP Hackman, Little Bill is a great foil for Munny. The perfect balance of self righteousness and insecurity that Gene is so good at portraying. He thinks the law makes him good, but a guy who has killed women and children still has more character. Deserve’s got nothin’ to do with it.

    A powerful statement in support of monogamy. Made me wanna kiss my wife. 

    Taut spy thriller from the genre master of having fun Soderbergh, driven mostly by sharp dialogue and suspicious glances. Not a moment wasted, a tidy 90 minutes—let’s make movies like this again. I got out of the movie and still had like a full day left.

    Pierce Brosnan is the cutest old man! But he should not be eating live fish. Ikizukuri is pretty hardcore though.
