RIP Eli Wallach

A life well lived! Wallach's role as Tuco is an example of excellence in character acting. And to think that his film and television credits went back as far as 1951, with him working all the way up until 2010 in Wall Street - Money Never Sleeps? That's one hell of a career!

Ghost Writer with Polanski. I remember that film.

I watched that film after the Kevin Smith film with Bruce Willis. Kevin Smith is one of the worst directors on the planet. The movie was painful and I needed a dose of something good.

Polanski is one of the best directors going.

I would argue the opposite, well that Smith is good, not the greatest. Plus, Kevin Smith isn't a noted pedo, so he has that going for him.
 
You notice that after Jack mounts Faye Dunaway, he still calls her "Mrs Mulwray"? What the heck is that?? I can't relate to that. If you can't refer to a lady by her first name, you have no business sleeping with her.
Like that dope Jesse on Breaking Bad.
Cooking meth for 2 years together and killing people, and it's still Mr. White this and Mr White that.
What?

It's like Ernest Borgnine said before he died- if you love what you do then never stop working! Ernest did acting and voice work until he died as well!

I'd like to think that before he died, he checked out TBOT.
