Ok, finally re-watched "The Assasin" (or "Female of the Species", as the case may be). Janice had some very astute observations, so I will try not to repeat any that she has already noted.
- I noticed a lot of funky incidentals going on in the background music. The sounds were like something you hear when someone plays an old sawblade like a violin. Kinda odd and very 80's, but I liked it.
- When Jesse tracks the bad guy with his infrared vision, the image on the screen looks like a floating red fetus.
- At the bar Jesse orders a beer and then walks away as the bartender tries to hand it to him.
- Later at the bar they deliver Jesse his beer and Anne her fruity drink. However, she gets up and leaves before taking a single sip of it.
- Yet again, Rachel shoots Jesse down. After he jokingly says "I'm yours, body & soul," she answers "Perish the thought," while rolling her eyes. Guess my fantasy that Jesse and Rachel were getting together was exactly that...a fantasy.
- Instead of backing towards the door, why do Altobelli and Menlo insist on moving towards the center of the arena?
- The arena battle scene was one of those scenes I always remembered as a kid, and still is one of my favorite scenes.
- I love the final shot of Altobelli staring at Street Hawk, I'd give a million bucks to find out what was on his mind at that moment.
Favorite Quotes:
Jesse: "Typical Washington beuroctrat; pushy, narrow-minded government type."
Norman: "Thanks a lot."
I really love when Altobelli gets so fired up at Menlo and screams, "After this is over, we have a little business to settle...alone...in a parking lot...understand!?!"
