To me, Lee Marvin is Parker (yes, I know, his name was Walker
in the movie, but you know what I mean). That said, it's been
a long, long time since I saw it as a late night movie, but I
thought Robert Duvall was very good in the role. I remember
his being a bit more personable than the Parker in the books,
but he did a nice turn as a professional criminal. Man, I've
got to dig through my tapes to see if I ever recorded that so
I can see it again.
Wouldn't that be great, a DVD set of all of the Parker
adaptations? Sorta speaking of which, anyone know a source
for the early cut of Payback?
