High Plains Grifter "You sir are a no good cowardly of a bitch ! You just killed an unarmed man !" "He should have armed himself ." Little Bill & William Munny I mentioned a while ago my first thought after deviriginzation was "That's what all the fuss is about ? Lame ." But I was recently asked what the SECOND thing I thought was . The answer ? "Huh , 88% of rock music is about getting a blowjob - it all makes sense now ." Today at work some middle aged ladies got in a fistfight over a lean cuisine . Well , not a fistfight , but a slapping and shoving fight - as per usual . It was pretty pathetic . As I'm sure you all know , I don't eat at work because its a sign of weakness , but there is a significant food banditry problem there (and everywhere else I've ever worked) . You have to be a special kind of sociopath to grab someone else's lunch . And I'd bet a small sum of cash money 30% of the time the stolen food is just thrown away . Symbolic of the human experience really . By the way , did you know boxing gloves have actually made boxing much more dangerous ? As the head is basically the hardest part of the human body (besides MY DICK) a connecting blow actually means you stand a better chance of breaking a hand (yours) than breaking a face (your opponent's). And remember that the human skull isn't just hard , it's also sharp . Angle your punch wrong , and you might drive your hand directly into the teeth . This is called a fight bite , and it can cause serious damage - first with a nasty gash in your hand , and then with an even nastier infection . Why ? Because the human mouth is disgusting . The only thing boxing gloves have reduced are the number of cuts and bruises , while significantly increasing the risk of brain damage and number of deaths . Yes , it turns out boxing gloves have only made it easier to punch a guy square in the face with full force . While the glove protects the hand against injury , your opponent's brain still has to deal with the full force of the blow , actually made worse by the added weight of the glove . For all the modern boxers who don't die in the ring , there's the 15 percent chance they'll develop some kind of brain damage , while bare-knuckle fighters , on the other hand , prefer to avoid the head altogether . Anyway , the point is seeing two 50 year old women wrestling on the ground in their control top pantyhose made me think I really need to become independently wealthy so I can quit working . Anyone interested in a pyramid scheme ? Remember if you get in early enough you can really clean up . In other news , as I'm sure you all know , Unforgiven is one of my favorite movies . But it was recently named one of the best romantic stories also . Sounds crazy at first . It's actually not an exaggeration to say that the film deconstructs and rebuilds the entire genre . For those of you who haven't seen it , kill yourself . Are you dead now ? Good . You had that coming . Now go watch Unforgiven and you'll see it's the story of a once-notorious gun-slinging criminal who comes out of retirement to collect the bounty on two men who were responsible for cruelly disfiguring a . Most of the movie is designed to debunk the notion of the badass superman cowboy , but ultimately , it's just a long con . In the final scene we learn , despite everything we've just been taught , that outlaw heroes are real . Early on , Richard Harris' character , English Bob , falsely claims to be such a man . He even travels with his own biographerr . But Bob is reduced to nothing by Sheriff "Little Bill" played by Gene Hackman . Little Bill is a no-frills authority figure : smart and tough , but also not a hero . He seems to relish his authority too much . He delights in Bob's beating in a way that only a true bully could , and he exists in a town where guns are banned . He seems to perpetually have the upper hand . More than anyone , Little Bill wants people to know that cowboy legends aren't real . Then there's Eastwood's character , Will Munny - reformed alcoholic , widower and struggling farmer trying to raise his . We hear he was a notorious outlaw , but there's no trace of it in his demeanor . He travels the movie fairly unimpressively , showing no particular talent for killing until his friend Ned is murdered and displayed outside the saloon/brothel where the was brutalized . Munny enters the hostile room of Little Bill and approximately 20 others with his gun drawn and . . . wins . He does everything the movie spent two hours explaining couldn't be done . He kills five men , clears the room and remains unscathed . "So where's the love story ?" you ask , and for a moment I'm confused , because I assume you're my ex-girlfriend . But anyone watching the movie has to notice that despite it being all about Munny and cowboys and killing , it starts and ends with narration about Munny's now deceased wife : She was a comely young woman and not without prospects. Therefore it was heartbreaking to her mother that she would enter into marriage with William Munny, a known thief and murderer, a man of notoriously vicious and intemperate disposition. And at the close of the movie: Some years later, Mrs. Ansonia Feathers made the arduous journey to Hodgeman County, Kansas, to visit the last resting place of her only . William Munny had long since disappeared with the ... some said to San Francisco where it was rumored he prospered in dry goods. And there was nothing on the marker to explain to Mrs. Feathers why her only had married a known thief and murderer, a man of notoriously vicious and intemperate disposition. That's the whole love story right there . Nothing more , but it takes Unforgiven from a good movie to a great movie for me . Even in the midst of 21st century instant gratification , those seemingly irrelevant and ambiguous details make us wonder . What did she see in him ? And the answer isn't as important as the fact that she did see something . Something made her fall in love , and it was a love so strong that despite other prospects , she had to be with this man and his dark past . And for that , her love was rewarded . He put down his gun , he gave up the drink and he thought only of providing for their when she passed . We also know that Munny must have loved her , too . After all , giving up all his evil ways was no big deal when we thought he was just some thug with a gun . By the end of the movie , however, we see that he is the stranger from A Fistful of Dollars . He is the outlaw Josie Wales . He is the living embodiment of every natural born killer cowboy myth we've ever heard , and he put it all away for love . One of the greatest love stories ever , with not one scene of the couple together , and barely any words explaining their love . I was going to<b> whine </font></b>about how I was depressed because of how disgusting I am and it turns out Liposuction isn't really the answer , but I thought this might be slightly more readable .

The romance is in the idea of man as a hero: he's first a hero by renouncing his violent ways for the love of a good woman, and later by avenging the crimes against the local women. I'm a sucker for a good romance.  Elevate me...
