Interesting comment. I had not heard of him before, but I’m headed to the wonderous world of IMDB to check him out!

Check Kim Ki-duk (Especially Bin Jip). Best under 50 director.

I agree. Especially about it taking more than a single viewing to start liking it and afterward, actually liking it more than Goodfellas.

The hooker aspect of Ginger might be my imagination, but I thought it was implied with the number of scenes of her in hotel bedrooms and the expectations one would have of a high-roller having her roll his dice for her. I don’t know, I may be mistaken. Either way, she’s definitely a hustler and has a pimp-like relationship with Lester.

I’ve seen this a number of times, and either I’m missing something or you are, because I’ve never gotten the impression that Ginger and Lester had a hooker/pimp relationship. She’s a hustler, for sure, but not a hooker.

Anyhow, I love this movie. Despite its length, it’s very rewatchable. The funny thing is, I didn’t enjoy it at all when I saw it in the theater, but ever since, it’s been probably my favorite mafia movie of the last 30 years. Yes, even better than GoodFellas.

Yeah, I pretty much tagged it like I would tag any individual post and that lead to things getting a little out of hand.

I’m surprised about your take on Blow, but different strokes. A lot of the list was toss-ups. There were a lot of titles I left off that I now think maybe I should have included. Maybe I’ll do a part two or something. There are a ridiculous number of well-done crime movies that have a lot of truth behind their stories.

Wow, that’s a lot of tags.

I’m afraid you lost me at number 1. I had moderate-to-high hopes for Blow, but found it boring. Such a letdown.

I do love many of the others on the list, though…
