Some gathered "priceless" items, others offed themselves (Quietus, for when the time is right), etc. If it were American there would have been a Bruce Willis type to come in and save the world while Chris Hemsworth would be procreating with every woman he could get his hands on.

    Clive portrayed a classic Brit reaction, ignore it and carry on with a melancholy cynicism. Also, Clive is may favorite English name followed closely by Nigel.

    Plus, who doesn't enjoy Julianne Moore getting a bullet to the forehead after only about 3 minutes of screentime!!!
    Young Clive is always solid. "Croupier" is another good'un. And the aforementioned EWGL, in which he plays a spurs fan lol.
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    WHAT A FILM. The one take scene near the end was subsequently ripped off countless times after. A true trend setting film.
