Oliver Hardy


I watched this on telly last night. It was so appalling it was brilliant. What struck me though was how much William Forsythe started to resemble Oliver Hardy in his final confrontation with Seagal. With his hair all matted down, his silly moustache and his pot belly he looked a dead ringer. Watch it again and see what you think. It's Laurel & Hardy with blood.

William Forsythe did pack on a lot of weight for this role. The guy is supposed to be a base head, so im not sure he should be fat. But he still was hilarious as Richie.

He reminded me of a greasy punk kid on my block, Mike D. dead ringer. He did look like O. Hardy in that final scene though, haha!

More like Moe Howard with a Hitler mustache.

That's what I thought too. And his physique in general brings to mind what Denis Leary said about Lenny Clarke: "He's the only person who ever gained weight while he was addicted to cocaine." (substitute 'crack' in Richie's case).

To the top to resurrect dead memories...
