Oh jeez this one is awful.  I was thinking about watching Rollerball the other day too.  I may rewatch Thief.

I just saw where Paulie from the Sopranos died as well.

Thief is on Tubi. Maybe I'll watch it tonight. I've never seen it before.

I’m going for Killer Elite. I’ve tried before but it’s so coked out it was hard to get into it. Caan got Peckinpah hooked on blow while making it. And it shows!

Thief is so good

I've seen it a few times.  It's decent but it's sort of decadent (lol and for obvious reasons).  Second half drags a bit. But it's still watchable and better than Osterman Weekend.  That Peckinpaugh I couldn't get through.

Thief is basically Heat's little brother.  You notice a lot of similiarities theme wise.  Also neon lit CHI streets >LA skyline.  And I love Heat.

It blows my mind Peckinpah was set to direct both Deliverance and Jeremiah Johnson.

What could have been for him.
