R.I.P. vs. R.I.P.
Sunday, August 22, 2010
Not posting because I have a dog in this race, but more to marvel at how calm and borderline debonair Gene Siskel is as he lays into John Ritter (Larry Sanders Show, Season 2). Who knew Siskel was such a stone-faced assassin? Don’t worry about the intricacies of the “dog” stuff after the jump, either; the joy is watching a roughed-up Geno do his best James Caan. And Rip Torn bleating a “shut the fuck up” that’ll make your hair curl.

From what I’ve read and heard, Siskel really was just like this! Ruthless, charming, totally confident.
