Fri, 19 Apr 2024 07:00:00 +0000

McGee makes E face-off at dawn to screen Ridley Scott’s piercing debut about some finely aged beef.

They draw pistols and comparisons to Ridley's later work, catch flashes of steel and genius through the fog, and clash over how many takes does it take to get to the center of an actor's performance. Were Shawn’s low-brow picks just a feint to lure E into his fool’s guard?
