@MackReed Possibly one favorite stand alone scenes in the history of film. And this film itself ain't bad either! The sheer acting power present is staggering. As is the mutual respect that those two had for one another. Great stuff.
@LocalStain Yeah, Gary Oldman, Patricia Arquette turn in amazing performances. Even James Gandolfini's little bit part is a tour de force of unspoken menace, that sidewise look that says "I could destroy you, but I'm just gonna wait a second and see what happpens next."
Here are two great interviews with the principals- http://the-talks.com/intervie..., http://the-talks.com/intervie...

I loved Gandolfini in that movie. The flickers of compassion as he is beating the crap out of Alabama Worley... Great acting, great film-making.
