Litterbug


Faye was very beautiful in this movie, but what a litterbug! She ripped up Crown's letter, in the graveyard, and threw it in the air; when there was a garbage can right next to her!

Litterbug? She was also destroying evidence involved in yet another huge robbery! A crime in itself!

I like both films, but I definitely prefer the '68 version. Some of the film making techniques were intriguing and innovative. The music was perfectly suited to the scenes, and I much prefer the '68 ending to the remake. Not every film should end happily. The "headhunter" tried cleverly to play the mark and was played very brutally herself. By the way, I might be mistaken, but I think that the kid who delivered the telegram at the end of the first film was re-cast as the man who gives Renee Russo's character the suitcase on the dock at the end of the remake. I was sorry to see, as well, that Paul Burke died back in '09. He was a fine actor who never received the credit he deserved.

That's why they needed the Crying Indian Commercial to come out less than 2-years later; There was no one to show Faye Dunaway the errors of her way...

I think a Man with a Helmet Defending Our Country should make More Money than a Man with a Helmet Defending a Football.

I didn't remember, she tore that up. The cemetery as a setting then is what's symbolic. Their relationship was dead at that point; ultimately I guess it's not over until it's all over

Fun fact: Faye Dunaway was arrested twice in real life, and both times it was for littering (in 1979 and 1994).
