Fun Shoe
Great dialog, good twisting plot, lots of violence, and comedy.

This movie is all about lust. Everyone covets what's close but can't be reached::
  • a pocket watch
  • sexual gratification
  • the boss's wife
  • a new start
  • freedom
  • tranquil home life
  • good drugs
  • a great cup of coffee.


What's in the briefcase? Like the best McGuffins, it represents something that can't be obtained:

Unrequited desire - whatever might be in there, you can't have it.

Brilliant.
