I and my 1929 Hudson where extras in this movie and Road to perdition. My time in the Pullman hotel was pretty cool.Actually got to do a little acting but ended up on the cutting room floor.It sounds like fun but really boring. Extra's in the union station scene (Untouchables)  Waiting to go as back round (untouchables)  My wife was not very good with the camera. Took forever to find the picturesThis message has been edited. Last edited by: 1Lowtrk, | |||

This is one of the best threads I've read in a while.  “Without its tough spearmen, Hellenic culture would have had nothing to give the world. It would not have lasted long enough. When Greek culture became so sophisticated that its common men would no longer fight to the death, as at Thermopylae, but became devious and clever, a horde of Roman farm boys overran them.” — T. R. Fehrenbach, This Kind of War | |||

I wonder how many members have passed this thread by because they think it's about a Brian DePalma film? ____________________________________________________ "The world's in a bad way, my man, And bound to be worse before it mends; Better lie up in the mountain here Four or five centuries, While the stars go over the lonely ocean" - Robinson Jeffers | |||

That was my impression as well. Fantastic stuff! “Without its tough spearmen, Hellenic culture would have had nothing to give the world. It would not have lasted long enough.

That's cool. I liked that movie a lot. Costner was somewhat stiff but Connery's acting made up for it. "Though defensive violence will always be 'a sad necessity' in the eyes of men of principle, it would be still more unfortunate if wrongdoers should dominate just men." - St. Augustine  | |||

Awesome picture. "The Constable." A nickname from Sean Connery. You sir, are the most interesting man in the world. Screw that dude on the Does Equis commercials. ----------------- "What if...

Andy Garcia and the shot on the stairs. Deniro as Capone. Great movie. Great story on the picture. | |||

Not bad for a Jersey boy! Congrats on the CUT. There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass! | |||

That was the last movie I saw at the Columbia Theatre in Atlanta (the only 88mm theater at the time). The slow motion scene in the train station on the stairwell still gives me chills to this day!

At first when I looked at that picture I thought the production designed REALLY screwed up continuity lmao That is a great keepsake and quite possibly one of the best 30's era gangster movies ever made. I rank it right up with modern gangster movies like "The Departed" | |||

Great movie and a heck of a cast, like Sean Connery with this line as Malone: "Isn't that just like a wop? Brings a knife to a gun fight." Still sounds cool even if you were bored. *** People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.
