  1. Little known fact but this was Jackie Chan’s first role, as the last of the stunt men attacking Ben Foster. Foster later tried to apologize to Jackie because the hit actually landed and hurt him pretty bad, but Jackie was just excited to be in the role alongside Ben.

  2. This was such a weird movie to adapt based on an absolutely horrifying true story.

    I remember thinking about this recently and how if this came out today it would likely be on Netflix and most likely would just be a true crime limited series at best.

    Ben foster is amazing, but the direction and editing of this scene fucking sucks. That poor actor deserves better, he’s outstanding and needs more quality opportunities like he had in 3:10 to Yuma.

  4. is that being posted cause of that thread in the chris pine post or just coincidence.

    either way no complaints from over here

  5. this is called thug. they always cave when another bigger thug show up, no exception unless they are stupid.

    This movie is underrated. Ignoring Emile Hirsch the acting is top notch all around.

    It’s such a sad true story, but I think they did it Justice. Anton Yelchin begging for his life at the end 😭 he was such a talent and gone too soon.

    Ben Foster should have an Oscar for Leave No Trace; hopefully he gets another role to be recognized.

  7. 1. Ben Foster rules this movie.

    2. I’ve been bringing this one up lately in relation to Dr. Abbot on The Pitt.

  8. I didn’t think about it until just now but has movie fight choreography gotten more diverse in the last 20 years? It’s actually hilarious how hollywood karate this scene is, like Ben Foster studied the assignment way too well

    Like, this is totally the fight in every martial arts movie where the masterless kung fu prodigy fights the fraud master’s students after confronting him — each opponent sways in the background waiting for their chance to throw a windmill shot, gets WWE-locked by dude’s block move and then kicked into some furniture

    The only part that’s missing is for Ben Foster to throw an almost-punch an inch from the cowering leader’s face and then tell him to leave the girl/struggling business/hapless sidekick alone
