On the Waterfront; Rod Steiger, Marlon Brando; back of the car?

"that night at the garden... you shoulda looked after me...

"we looked after you; you saw some money

"You don't understand, Charlie, I coulda bin someone, I coulda bin a contender... instead of being a bum,, which is what I am, let's face it.

One of cinema's greatest moments.

 

Is what I thought you were getting at.

 

Deffo went over Vespos head by't look of it.

I had to look up Palookaville -

Sid (William Forsythe), Russell (Vincent Gallo) and Jerry (Adam Trese) are three friends in New Jersey who are struggling for money. After deciding that crime is the answer to their problems, they plan a jewelry store theft -- only to mistakenly break into a bakery next door. The three men go straight, believing they are not suited to crime. As their financial woes continue, however, they eventually agree on what they feel is a flawless scheme to rob an armored car.

"...one way ticket to P'ville"  is part of the same scene in On the Waterfront

Have a see.

Which is the basis of what GP was getting at.

Twatisms...........  hahaha I like it..   Oh by the way..  I ain't no racist. I'm a nationalist if anything at all..

which in my case translates as only having immigrants come here who fit in, and play on an intellectually level playing field..  to whit, more Jews more Japanese and more Europeans..  the rest can stay were they are...   and for good reason..   generally speaking..  evidence dear boy, evidence..

 

Oh and someone, not sure who, felt the need to ask me a question, I gave an honest answer..  its not my fault that it upset some people..  when Tyson was at his finest, I had confidence I could last more than a couple of rounds..  I trained as a boxer at one point, the only thing that put me off was seeing Ali suffer from being punch drunk..  no thank you I said to myself..  I fancy keeping hold of my marbles..   but I was good, and knew I was good, I could of been a contender...

 

And yes I'm opinionated, I didn't even know I was till it was pointed out by people over the years.. including on other internet forums..  hahhaha  so what..  and another thing, the Socratic method.

I didn't know I used his methods to make points till I learned about his methods of argument as well.. Great minds an all that...

 

So, in summation, I'm as hard as Tyson, as clever as Socrates, what more do you want..

Doesn't make up for this though! ?

Well I'm never comfortable talking about these sort of things myself, I tend to see that as bit low brow, undignified if you will.... what with me being an ex good christian an all..  

 

anyways,. no doubt the the blonde one was being forewarned to prepare herself as that was the girth of the monster...

We're on the downward slope, Stubby. Don't worry, it won't last, he'll go back to being a full time knob soon.
