If you winced at parts of Pulp Fiction, you'll do the same here. But it's a very funny film, of the ironic gallows sort.
Read is a bit of a legend in his own lunchtime - not quite as serious a crim as he makes out, but heavy enough. Been a good boy since he got out of jail 10 plus years ago - got married, divorced, and popped up just last weekend, the story being that his liver's shot with hepatitis, but he saying that he doesn't deserve a transplant. (And he's not a junkie). Age transforms him into the lovable rogue.
Few from his heyday are still living - seems as if crim generations are somehow shorter than those of squareheads.
Still, all that's in the film is part of the Chopper legend, and whether it's true or not doesn't really matter. Plus, those who do see it get a wee slice of life in sunny Melbourne - world's 20th most livable city ...
