    Yes.

    Have you seen the series: The Gentlemen and the new one, Mob Land?

    Matthew Vaughn: Layer Cake is one of the most rewatchable crime movies

    Reminds me I forgot to watch his last movie. Love Wes but nothing tops the original trinity of Bottle Rocket, Tenenbaums (maybe Hackman’s best role?) and Rushmore.

    "You wanna talk some jive, I`ll talk some jive"......................OMG, that was great, Hackman was in so many great movies, but this one was special even for him.............man it sucks he passed away and even worse how he passed away, what a loss

    Anderson's kinda/sort answer to the Coens' Hudsucker Proxy, maybe? I really like the look of it. Looks like a return to some sort of narrative after that weird Southwestern alien flick with no plot.
