Sunshine Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 First of all, I LOVE THAT MOVIE!!!Mickey Rourke as Marv kicked ass!! I was just a little confused how The Salesman, Josh Hartnett's character fit in? Was he representing Higher society? Does he play a big role in the comic book?Just curious if someone could shed some light for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Josh Hartnet's character in the movie is The Salesman. He makes his fist appearance in "The Customer is Always Right". This was a one time story that can be found in the "Booze, Broads, and Bullets" Novel, the 6th volume in the Sin City collection. The Salesman is a hitman for hire who, like in the movie, is hired to kill the woman in the red dress. It is important to the film as it was the test scene used by Rodriguez to convince Frank Miller to let Sin City be brought to the big screen.

CyberHippie Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 I just watched this on the weekend. Excellent film!! I didn't get the ending though, when they dude in the elevator offers the girl a cig. It was a couple of days though between watching the first half and last half, so maybe I forgot something important... The movie looked amazing though, I can't believe how with lighting effects and subtle use of colour they were totally able to make it look 'illustrated'. Very cool.

Sunshine Posted August 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 CyberHippie - that was Josh Hartnett again at the end. I guess he was going to kill that girl like the one in the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberdinghy Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 She was a "bad" whore.Me and Stephie watched this last night...I liked it but didn't think it was unbelievable...Was that Benicio in the "whore" story? Man did he look different, the whole talking dead thing was hilarious...Anyways...never thought Harry Potter was the human eating kind...
