Once in a lifetime experience! A friend of mine made a bootlegg copy of this film at release party and brought it to a party at my place, we were all glued to the tv and became completely TRANSCENDED! Absolutely "THE BEST" Tarantino film! And by far the BEST Love Story EVER!! I can't wait to watch it again...from the scene where Gary Oldman, her pimp gets his head blown off, to the elevator scene where Elliot loses his s*** at gunpoint, totally "EPIC" scenes from Christian Slater.

This film. I'm sorry that it's not available in my country. I will always VIVIDLY remember the scene between Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper. I understand context and abhor racism, however, by way of insult to a Sicilian Don, Hoppee is phenomenal. The chemistry is so very perfect...the timing, and precision of two masterful actors and Tarantino lines...this film is full awesome, memorable moments. So underrated, but yes...it's my idea of a perfect warrior's death. Gangster classic.

By far my favorite movie! Loved it in the 90's and it's still my #1. The actors in it, the music, the script and action scenes, it's so captivating from start to finish. And I'm not a lovey kind of movie person but I absolutely love Christian and Patricia aka Alabama ❤️
