A bigger hole for me was the fact that Nicholson himself goes to the buys. Even Damon (?) tells him he shouldn't be going himself.

I think they just wanted to maximize Nicholson's screen time since he was so over the top and fun to watch in his character.

Another (bigger one) was that how could Nicholson and his men not know who the rat was? It had to be the new kid who got "kicked" out of the police.

Now that you point this out, I think your holes are bigger than my holes. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

But more importantly: did you catch the homage to Psycho? I caught the Third Man reference, but don't know Psycho well enough. Ask John to tell you what it is and then tell me. Thanks.

I've never seen The Third Man but its on my kitchen counter via Netflix. I was hoping to watch it tonight but got in too late (plus the new issue of The Atlantic came in yesterday, I thought the Hillary article was so fascinating I could conceivably imagine voting for her).

Regarding the Psycho homage, I think John should pretend we are Community College Freshman and just explain in plain English what the heck he is talking about. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
