it's a movie about the UK's longest-serving prisoner, Charles Bronson. it's very individual-focused but is honest at times that prison is an awful place. idk what does everyone else think

    I haven't thought of that movie in forever. My only thoughts are I like Refn, even if he's his films are pretentious af, and I seem to remember Bronson stripping before fighting guards in prison. That did happen right? I watched this very late at night

      not only did that happen, he made one of the guards lotion him with butter before his big naked fight.

      also fun fact: the british public were outraged when it was discovered that the prison was supplied with brand-name lurpak butter, meaning charles' asscheeks were covered in higher quality butter than most ppl put on their toast

      edit: or at least i THINK i remember that, saw it on a newspaper so theres 50% chance its true
