Review: Greedy People
I suppose the ‘Coen’ influence is strong in this film – but it misses the mark.

This is yet again, another worthwhile releases from Powerhouse Films. No other company releases truly great older films, ones we certainly would never have the chance of seeing or enjoying.
The Lady is Willing stars Marlene Dietrich; yes you can hear her sing now can’t you? Or is it…. Madeleine Kahn in Blazing Saddles? (best impersonation ever).
This is a must buy if you’re a fan of Riddick – I mean just look at all these lovely extras.
Eddie; seeped in booze, wobbling through life. Richie; vain, stupid, bossy, trying to be posh. Both of them ultra-violent (in a slapstick way) and in need of a shag off a nice bird in a smashing blouse.
Apparently, Red Sun is Quentin Tarantino’s favourite ‘spaghetti’ western, and it’s easy to see why.
You could definitely call it an early ‘revisionist’ Western that was inspired by events of the 1864 Sand Creek massacre in Colorado, made in 1969 it’s also a glaring allegory for the then contemporary Vietnam War.
