He played the boys swim coach in 'Ordinary People', one of my top 5 movies of all time. Also was great as the lawyer in 'Wildcats' with Goldie Hawn.

“He hates these cans!”

I made this joke playing morning hoops a few months ago when a loose basketball hit somebody's water bottle and knocked it over. One other guy got it and now we are boys.

Deckard meets Bryant's pleading eyes for a beat.

DECKARD
I was quit when I walked in
here...
(pause)
... I'm twice as quit now.
See ya, Bryant.

Deckard turns to go.

Bryant's pleading look turns abruptly cold and hard.

BRYANT
Stop the **** right where you are!

Deckard freezes at the hard tone.

BRYANT
You know the score, pal. When
you're not a cop, you're little
people.

DECKARD
Forgot there for a minute about
the little people. No choices
I guess.

BRYANT
No choice, pal.

I rewatched both not that long ago and they hold up so well. Fletch Lives might have aged better actually.

Blood Simple is my favorite Coen Bros movie and one of the most underrated and underseen movies ever.

Have you seen Drive-away Dolls yet? I know it’s only one of them and I’m curious how it is. They’re easily our favorite.
