Most unrealistic movie I've ever seen. This guy at the front is called a "cock-swain", and he wears this gear the whole time, and not once did any of the "boys" laugh, giggle, not so much as a snicker

    The cuts to the locks, yes! Very weird decision, I'm not sure it was intentional. The movie has some serious issues but I have to admit I did enjoy it

      yeah, same. good popcorn flick. though they didn't spend much time in the shantytown, i appreciate they went all out on the set design for it, the broken down car he lived in, and the establishing shots/backdrops of the depression era seattle.

      i instantly thought about how, in today's economically distressed communities of the US, unhoused people aren't allowed to cobble together shelters like they did back then. hell, the "contentious" issue for libs is how they keep sending cops to demolish tent camps or seek to commodify them into fee-for-service, socially restrictive non-profit grifts.
