Was that added late in the game? And what did the studio think about it? I'm not sure I've ever seen a film close on such a f--king down note, man. Ron's story had the piss taken out of it, sure, but then that f--king rally? And the street?

Nothing. We ARE fucked. So what now?"

Either way, I'm jealous.<br /><br />Yeah, I've been lamenting both endings since I left the theater. Rarely do I like a film that has such a shitty ending, you know? Or at least not this much.<br /><br />If I ever had the time, I would love to watch a ton of his movies.

I had zero idea he was Denzel's kid (I'm way out of the loop), and I almost died when I found out. Clearly, not a bloodline you want to f--k with. Same for the Buscemi's apparently. <br /><br />HA! Yes. Frickin' Baldwin. So good.<br /><br />m.brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457418128925003938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369116000753884175.post-18452782989715090952018-09-18T17:08:29.404-04:002018-09-18T17:08:29.404-04:00Happy (very) belated birthday!

Ron's ending though, that sucked, but I'm also not surprised that's how it went down. This film was excellent. <br /><br />And I'm always here for more Adam Driver love. he's amazing.
