Is This The Greatest Scene Ever? Way of the Gun

I get drunk and watch a lot of movies. So much so I’ve lost track as to what I love and what I hate. Any random Friday night I can find myself picking a new favorite film of all time depending on how much rum has fallen down my throat. It’s even worse with individual scenes. If my glassy eyes can focus on the screen for more than five minutes at a time and it’s a pretty sure bet I’m going to declare whatever I just watched as the greatest scene of all time. I have approximately 693 of these. So I need your help. I’m going to break down the following scene from WAY OF THE GUN and you tell me if my drunken declaration is justified or simply another stupid drunken declaration. Here’s the shit:

This is why I think it might be the greatest scene of all time.

• That guy’s hair. When you’re drunk and watching this at four in the morning, you want hair like that. It’s like an infomercial.
• Everything Sarah Silverman says. It’s like a buffet of every swear word in existence mashed up together so quickly you don’t even care if what she’s saying makes any sense. “…fucking baby-head fuck?” What does that even mean? Doesn’t matter.
• This line – “Shut that cunt’s mouth or I’ll come over there and fuck-start her head.” Now, even if we find that this isn’t the greatest scene of all time, I think we can agree that that is one of the greatest lines of dialogue ever spoken in film.
• The way the one background guy laughs after that line above is spoken. It gets me every fucking time I watch the scene (which is going on 47 times in a row as I type).
• When Benicio Del Toro flips the hood ornament as he’s being called “…your fucking gay uncle over there”. It’s the little things that make me giggle for hours (months).
• The first punch. I’m not for violence against women or anything like that but I’m pretty sure 99.9% of the viewing audience screamed “YES!” the first time they watch Silverman get blasted in the face.
• Benicio biting the guy’s calf.
• Silverman’s exploded face.

That’s just a short recap of what they’re doing right here. Make sure you watch the whole scene above to get the entire package. When you’re done, let me know in the comments below if this is one of the greatest scenes of all time. I’m pretty sure it is. But I’m shitfaced.
