Yes, this's the only scene that me make angry.
The gun save her life.
Fun movie.
It's shame we didn't seen more movies like this one.
Kick ass movie.
A fun action movie that does not try to educate viewers, like most movies today. And you can literally imagine the protagonist as an action hero. There is a special style to this genre of action with Van Dam, Stallone, Steve Siegel and others. I doubt if it can be restored today but I still hope they try.

Thank you friend.

They don't eat the diamonds of course.
In those years the Nazis used to steal Jewish families property. Like many other in those years, the family in the movie hide their belonging from the Nazis, hope they don't find them.
You can guess that apart from the monetary value, many of the properties had emotional and sentimental value, perhaps an inheritance from the parents or a marriage gift.
Me too!!
He was great in this movie and I loved him in The Wire also.
Maybe it's not Netflix, maybe it's identities politics: Parasite is Korean movie and Roma it's about the Mexican community.
Why the hell a movie like Parasite is even nominated for Oscar? it's american films award not UN films awards. There's already Best International Feature Film in the Oscar, it's not fair for the artists that are citizens of United States. Also it's clear that it's randomly, none of Fellini or Kurosawa movies never nominated for best picture in the Oscar. It's not clear why some foreign movie nominated and the other not.
Don't worry, you and me and many others interpreted in a similar way. I was really surprised to seen Frank near Jimmy house, like you I thought they "sent elsewhere" for protection.
About his son, from the first time his character appear in the movie I had a feeling he's angry at him, so yes I think he know about the plan. Although, the assassins have no motive I can think of to tell the son about the plan to murder Jimmy. We never know with Scorsese.
Silly and good question at the same time - if it's make sense.
The fact that someone is attractive doesn't mean every girl has to fall in love with him. This's not how things works.
I think that in the airport she realized that William is the only one that care and respected her and this's the reason she felt so sad but not in a romantic way. I actually see a resemblance between William's sister and Penny role in William life they both guide him thorough rock life. According to my interpretation, Penny sees William as a brother more than a lover.
It's make more sense that woman like Penny fell in love with someone wild like Russell than a sweet guy like William. She can't fantasize about magical world or escape from reality with someone like William.
And don't forget the age difference.
The only time William got me little angry is when he interrupted Penny during the song Tiny Dancer. Come on, just listen to the song and shut up.
No me.
But now after I watched the movie again I listen to 'Tommy'.
And in Dr. Seuss birthday!!
The left in the United States is not only fascist but also evil.
It's not the same truck driver.
He really got confused between the two drivers.
Watch the two scenes again.
In fact I agree with much of what you said.
I am also thought they quickly drop the suspension part about the bad guys identity and the fate of his wife. In my opinion the magic of the first part stems from the fact that each of us can feel the anxiety, confusion, helplessness of the main protagonist looking for his wife. The movie is top class for kidnapping movie but could have been better.
Maybe this's the reason he take the role.
The irony is big reason why I loved the ending.
Also, from the movie clues, I'm pretty sure that he's the one that rape her.
Everyone discuss about Ebert without the text, so let's start with his exact words:
"I'm recommending "Breakdown,'' but I have a problem with the closing scene I
mentioned above. It involves a situation in which a villain is disabled and powerless--
yet a coup de grace is administered. There is (or was) a tradition in Hollywood
thrillers that the heroes in movies like this kill only in self-defense. By ending as it
does, "Breakdown'' disdains such moral boundaries.
I noticed, interestingly, that no one in the audience cheered when that final death
took place. I felt a kind of collective wince. Maybe that indicates we still have an
underlying decency that rejects the eye-for-an-eye values of this film. "Breakdown''
is a fine thriller, and its ending is unworthy of it."
One thing I agree with him, most people understand, at least in the moment of the scene, that kill disabled guy is overall wrong. But I didn't understand his criticism about the moral of the character. I disagree not about the values of the act itself discussion that I encouraged, but the fact he think the unmoral act of the wife is good reason no to include it in the movie.
For me, I understand the wife completely, she was cheated, kidnapped and beaten by despicable people. Even if we not accept the rape theory (I personally was convinced the rape theory was true) they buried her alive in the fridge - this's by itself one of the most horrible crime I can think about. Who can blame her?
