When I heard the news I had no idea who he was, I sort of recognised the picture but even then, with the pic alone I would not have known who he was.

Definitely a local hero.

Awesome filum and so far (I think) immune to some shitty remake.

The book is a mini-novel. We’ll worth tracking down.

No! The remake is truly appalling

It’s a fantastic film - but Caan was a top Trumper, so in real life he would have been on the side of those exploiting his character.

There’s a remake?

sad trombone

There is. Watch it once and then die. I know I did.

I shall remain in blissful ignorance.
