Viewing Notes

Wow. The only bad thing about Don Siegel’s Charley Varrick (1973) is not seeing it until now. Damn. This is such an amazing film on so many levels. I think Joe Don Baker is the early prototype for Anton Chigurh. Actually the entire film looks like the blueprint for No Country For Old Men. See this film now.
