How did they decide which 2-minute chunk of this movie best served as a clip? "That part with the clanging background noise, that alone is worth the price of admission."

Very similar directing style to Alfonso Cuaron. Emmanuel Lubezki, who was the cinematographer for Gravity is also doing his magic on this one

Also I'm glad Los Tres Amigos are getting recognition here in the US

Very excited for the film. It feels like it was written specifically for Keaton to act in to some way reflect his actual acting career.

Something tells me that poor bastard ended up on the "business end" of one of Nicholson's golf clubs. He has a history of that!

Nicholson places cigerette in mouth ever so calmly. Seemingly gracious, he takes the picture out of the man's hand, but then crumples it, punches the man in the face. As the man now lies on the ground with blood soaking his nose and mouth, Nicholson takes the crumpled picture and shoves it in the man's mouth, then picks up the pen, which was dropped in the scuffle, and rights on the man's forhead: "Wait till they get a load of me. ~Jack Nicholson".

That look, alone, should have caused the guy to burst into flames.
