Good review as usual and you made some interest points, which I quoted.
Maybe he was suffering from some type of PTD from the war and that explains why he was like the Terminator...emotionless, cold and calculating. Except for the bar scene where he seemed to be enjoying himself. His behavior is a mystery and I liked that.
Ha, love that line, the whole movie is full of strange but fun dialogue that took me by surprise and I laughed out loud at places. That's the best thing about this movie, is it's very different
I like that! I felt the same way too...her character is odd, but do we really need an explanation as to why? nope we don't.
Ride The Pink Horse
For whatever reason i didn't totally love Gagin, the performance was fine but he left me cold alot of the time. He had a kind of robotic delivery, with no emotion behind it or if there was it was almost always anger...Stuff like that and his military service made me like him a bit more as it was easier to understand why he was so bitter and cynical.
Pancho was pretty great he said some hilarious things, his whole weight being a sign of beauty/a desirable woman kinda cracked me up "10 Dollars? You're crazy, why you waste time on the stick? A guy like you could get himself a princess, a fat one!".
I don't think i fully understand why Pila was the way she was, but i liked her anyway. I'm not even sure i'd want her deal explained...
