L4yer Cake last night. Perfect score, casting, pacing, ending. Just a cracker of a film. Could rewatch forever.

For those who haven`t seen it, the magnificent revenge film to end all revenge films is on Film4 tonight at 9.30pm.
Sisu.
It also gets major props for the Bedlington Terrier, that remains faithfully by our hero`s side, as he single handidly battles what seems like entire Nazi empire
The body count in this makes John Wick look like a Sunday School outing.
Watched "Bugsy" a couple of days ago. 1991 I think, Warren Beatty. Just awful. In fact I sacked it after 45 mins, came back the next night for another 45 mins and I just can't finish it. Woeful on so many levels.
But last night I watched The Sting (Newman, Redford) with one of my lads. Top top film I've seen before but he hasn't. He's a bit of a movie buff. Opening scenes and he's like "is that actor any relation to James Earl Jones". Looking and behold it was his dad. Similar voices apparently.
Bugsy (1991) isn't terrible, it's an american mafia movie, but it occupies a part of that history that the godfather covers, and how can they compete with that. It's just a bit camp. Not helped by a very similar camp 'dick tracy' (1990) the year before and with her* in it. Bugsy is the better of the two, but that's not high praise.Watched "Bugsy" a couple of days ago. 1991 I think, Warren Beatty. Just awful.

A little known fact… Both Newman and Redford got paid equally $500,000 each for their roles in the film, which at the time was the record for the highest paid salary for an actor.![]()
a classic, score is top notch as well.
