Which is more pure Horowitz 'gold'...?


Let's do a poll. Select from the following:

A) When Horowitz trashes Loughgran with the garbage, then jumps on the counter of the cafeteria and poses, just before starting a food-fight? So funny.

B) When Horowitz smiles at Tweety, when O'Brien tells him he "Cut his face shaving". That look is amazing.

C)
When Horowitz leans over the bed, after O'Brien just got spit on by about 40 cons, and finally says, ... "So...how you like it so far?"


To me, so difficult to choose. He's simply too much. That little imp always has me cracking up, has to be the funniest "drama" in the history of film. I swear, it should be listed as a comedy.

How do you all see it?

I just saw bad boys for the first time last week- I recently developed a man crush on young Sean Penn and am in the process of watching all of his films from about 82-92. So that led me here.

I'm glad I got to see this. Horowitz surprisingly made the movie for me just as much (and maybe more) than Penn did. For me, I liked the scene where he smashes up the warden's office the most. I also like the scene where he tells Penn why he ended up there... I can definitely visualize Horowitz setting a bowling alley on fire! Haha

Anyway... Horowitz is awesome! It's a shame the actor didn't make more movies. The 80's could have used him in more funny roles

Princeton could use a guy like....Horowitz! :)

Damn I loved Horowitz in this movie.

I just wish he would have gotten even with those guys that beat him up at the bowling alley.

No kidding. Would love to see some deleted scenes with Horowitz, maybe AT the bowling alley, setting off bombs.

Best character ever. I laugh every time I picture that little imp standing in that classic pose, following him garbaging Loughgran, right before he starts the famous food fight.

Horowitz should have had his own movie. Maybe a prequel showing us the bowling alley and his days inside before O'Brien comes in.

If you even dream about shooting me, you'd better wake up and apologize!!!

I thought his best scene was when he was waiting for Viking's radio to blow up.

Horowitz' face when Wagner gets snapped by the mouse trap

I think it is interesting that he stands up to Viking like that, being such a little kid. Guess he is trying to be tough. Remember, he did have an arson conviction so he is trying to show he isn't a wimp just because he is smaller than the others.
