WHY I LOVE JACK LEMMON

Just for kicks, here's the scene that I've remembered for all these years.

  1. Absolutely magical scene. I just love how natural it is. I love how PERFECT the "you should see my backhand" line is. Seriously, I want to strike every explosion and car wreck and Bruce Willis film from the record, and just replace it with this film. Hell, even this scene. Just absolutely perfect, beautiful filmmaking. Wonderful acting.

    God, the dialogue in this film is greater than any poem or lyric, just amazing.

    Have you read the screenplay? It's worth a read - you'll fall in love with the film all over again, and notice more magic lines than you remember.
