2. Point Blank
Lee freakin' Marvin.

Angie freakin' Dickinson.

Directed by John freakin' Boorman.

Get Carter has this early 70's 'No hope, no future' feel to it. Give me the '67 Point Blank space race optimism and
colorful California setting for my revenge flick please.

Besides it has a great cockpunch by Marvin in it. :rofl:

3. You make a great argument...
I had been focused on the similarities b/t the 2- thanks for pointing out some of the subtle differences...

(BTW- the "injury to mid-region" motif is present in "Get Carter" as well)
