I watched The Wild Bunch for the first time ever last night and JESUS loving CHRIST. I mean I've seen Peckinpah movies before and I know his ultra-violent for the time style. I saw this Python sketch years ago and laughed my rear end off, but I have a fresh understanding of it now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmcrreUVBeo Watching this nearly 50 years after it's release shocked the hell out of me, especially that opening robbery. I'll need some more time to process it, but for a movie about a bunch of fairly horrible people doing horrible things, I was transfixed the entire way and the ending was the only ending it could be. "We want Angel" indeed. I also appreciated how sympathetic the film was to the Mexican Revolution, I wasn't expecting that going in.
