Indeed! One of my favorite Al Stewart lines is the next one: "She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running like a watercolor in the rain."

For some reason, you remind me of Peter Lorre.

"You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre, contemplating a crime."

Artist or song?
Year of the cat by Stewart and Peter Lorre is ugly! 😠

You've just ruined it for everyone.
However, it was a very predictable ending. Reminded me of the far fetched Rocky film when he went to Russia and all the Russians were singing for Rocky to win. About as realistic as the KKK leader kneeling for BLM.
TV is predictable.
I'm sure everyone assumed she would win.
That is the problem with TV and movies.
Underdogs win 🙄
Geek gets the hot chick 🙄
One man beats a whole army 🙄
Two guys fight for 10 minutes but neither one has any marks on their face.
(Movies with The Rock are horrible for that)

If I was any more direct, it would involve a knee to the groin.

Seriously, if a fight lasts ten minutes it's because someone is liking it too much.

I saw it a few nights ago. Thought it was brilliant. I read the book twice. The film follows the book exactly.

Sounds familiar.

Agreeing with someone else's post, instead of paraphrasing it and trying to pass that off as original, won't hurt you, I swear.

You know I'd actually have to see that to believe it. It is possible if the guys were so drunk they couldn't stand to begin with.

Fights never last very long unless there are a bunch of people involved on both sides. One on one rarely lasts longer than about 2 minutes. I went to an an event where the guy lasted 14 seconds in a MMA ( Mixed Martial Arts ) match!!!
