This is the whole movie of Lee Marvin and Ronald Reagan in The Killers – 1964, glorious colour.
Adapted from a chilling short story by Ernest Hemingway, directed by Don Siegel (before he directed Clint Eastwood) and featuring a very satisfying scene at the end where President Reagan bites the dust..
But I put it on for the first minutes….see what you think.
These are professional businessmen – their profession is hitmen – their job is to hit a teacher of the blind, and the film revolves around their puzzlement at why the teacher accepts his death, without complaint or any attempt to escape.
But the first minutes (from 1.34 up to the killing) show you pure evil – see if you agree. These men are without feeling, without passion..they are businessmen, and they don’t have a single attractive trait throughout the movie, but these first minutes are sinister.
agree???
