Pattonesque posted:some good impersonations in Deadwood knew exactly what this was before i clicked on it. I know James Gandolfini and Bryan Cranston won all the acting awards during this era for the "petulant complicated shithead male protagonist" shows, and of course they were great in their roles, but the combination of Deadwood's writing and McShane's acting really makes Al one for the ages.

Bought that milch memoir on the recommendations ITT and it is just as awesome as previously mentioned. "There is something about literature--poetry and prose, but particularly poetry--which disinfects the effort of being."

Finished Milch's memoir. I lost some interest when he went deep into horse-racing and Luck as I never got into either one (although even that part had some good insights on the psychology of gambling addiction). The last bit, though, where he's talking about writing the Deadwood movie as he's succumbing to Alzheimers, is really poignant. He was aware of the parallels between Al's mortality and his own and he uses a lot of lines he gave to Al and Seth ("hate to die a fool") to describe his thoughts about the end of himself. He calls the chance to do the movie a gift, a way to say the last things about life he wanted to say. I had that notion when I saw the movie, but seeing it detailed in the book really makes it that much more heart-breaking. Anyway, great book and a pretty short read.
