'Coitus'
Meaning - rape.
The girl did not 'enjoy herself' because she was a 12 year old child who was being assaulted by an adult male.
Sorry - appreciated your answer, but your wording was a bit disturbing.
I looked away.
Where do we see that?
Oh, stop, all of you!
The boards went away because the people at IMDB don't like things that they cannot control (and/or don't bring in money). So they blame it on us - the IMDB community.
Don't internalize their stupid (and shortsighted) excuses for closing down our community (trolls and all!).
The best thing is that we have found other places to go. The sad thing is that so much was lost.
Anyway - that's it for me for now.

Nice response, and I agree!
No, don't agree.
Yes - I took it to mean that he wasn't going to take Toby up on his challenge. Toby living with it would be enough. I figured he came to Toby for answers more than anything else.
I wouldn't call HoHW an action flick. Action flicks are known by their lack of plot and dependence on large amounts of time spent in high-speed chases and fights of all kinds.
Just b/c a film has some violence or a fight (in service of the plot) does not make it an action flick.
I never watch action flicks.
In consideration of other readers, please don't put (major) spoilers in your post title...
I even laughed at the fight scenes - they were so overdone it was comical - the one at the gas station where Toby wastes the punk in the green car... Or when Tanner shoots up all of the cars that were following him with his AK...
And the sound effects were awesome - that really added to the fight scenes.
I read the scene completely differently. I think Hamilton came because he wanted information. He had almost all of it figured out and badly wanted to get the missing pieces - even if it put him in danger to do so.
Toby wanted to kill him because he killed Tanner, but I don't think Hamilton came to kill anyone - unless he had to (if Toby would have drawn on him).
The proof of it (more or less), was that Hamilton made it clear that he had no intention of visiting Toby at his house in town. He just tells Toby that his actions will haunt him for the rest of his life.
Toby taunts him - 'maybe you'd find some peace (i.e., after I waste you) and Hamilton answers back that maybe Toby would find peace (meaning 'don't underestimate me boy - I'm perfectly capable of wasting you'). But then Hamilton goes off and leaves him alone - with no implication or hint that he wants to 'continue the conversation further' - because he doesn't.
Hamilton just wanted to put the final pieces together and then leave Toby to his thoughts and his life.
This is how I read it, and I'm sticking to it, though ymmv.
Completely different movies.
Apples and oranges.
A meaningless comparison.
Loved it when he was lying face down and Matthau (Garber) called him 'Miss'
It was Guiliani that did the cleanup. Bloomberg just did maintenance.
Are you kidding?
There was no better decade for crime films than the 70's!
(No suggestions because they are already in the replies - but still wanted to make that point).
He was the young black dude in the tan leather jacket. The one who was on the platform (before he got on the train) and asked 'Haven't you ever seen a sunset?'
It's about their inability to tolerate speech that they do not control

They are stupid shits and are paying the price.
Their whole (abandoned) community wants' nothing more to do with them.
Good riddance (from an 11 year board member).
Was any of the Acosta story true? The 'betrayal', dissapearance, faked death, sending check - ?
I liked the movie - thought it was entertaining.
