Quote of the Week (101)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Jul 21, 2013
Timothy Carey goes further than the smiling heavies who show a lot of tooth: he shows a lot of gum. Not that the Carey smile has anything to do with humour: it happens, for instance, when he is concentrating, when in The Killing he is centring the telescopic sight of his rifle on a racehorse. In the read more
