Viewing Notes
Last film for my Bronson Project. Tried a couple of times to view the blu from my library but it will not play on either of my players. Finally opted for the DVD because it was the only film remaining that I wanted to see as part of this project.
It’s another one of *those* movies that I’ve somehow missed over the years. Big oversight on my part because it’s a damn fun film. A better blueprint for Castellari’s Inglorious Bastards and QT’s film even moreso. Not sure if this was the first time this concept was used but it’s certainly been replicated in various forms. Bronson and Cassavetes are really the heart and soul of this movie.
