'Ballad of Buster Scruggs', 'The Dead Don't Die', and 'The Old Man and the Gun': Tom Waits steals the show of every movie he's been in recently and has become the master at 'talking to himself in movies'.


I'm loving this resurgence of Tom Waits being in movies. He went from only having 1 movie (Seven Psychopaths) from 2010 to 2017 to having 3 very recently (The Old Man & The Gun, Ballad of Buster Scruggs, and The Dead Don't Die). He pretty much steals the show in all of them.His 'Mr Pocket' story in Buster Scruggs was the best in the movie IMO and definitely the best/most-memorable performance. His delivery of lines in Old Man & The Gun was hilarious. The Dead Don't Die was a little sloppy but his character was the best for sure.He also plays the role of 'narrator-like figure that talks to himself' perfectly in Scruggs and The Dead Don't Die. It's hard to make a role like that feel natural and believable but he does it both times. What could be a cheesy character turns into a highlight character.Here's to more Tom Waits castings soon. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/2XioDyl
