It's a slow Saturday morning for me and I decided to watch my DVD copy of Ghost Dog. This movie by Jim Jarmusch is like fine wine. Each time I watch it I either discover or rediscover a great detail in his filmaking.
- Henry Silva - that face is as cold as dry ice! loved his "red cloud", "poetry of war", and "I've been waiting for you" scenes.
- Several scenes where the gangsters watch cartoons...from Felix the Cat to Itchy & Scratchy...I really wonder if that's true in real life (hey, it just could be!)
- The French-speaking ice cream guy
- Vargo's daughter
- Slick techniques -- tape on glass, spraying metal weakening chemical on chain
- Forest Whitaker can fire a gun
- Victor Argo - great character actor -- was also in King of New York...also dies from gunshot wound (for some reason he reminds me of the late JT Walsh)
