Just a few things in the order I remember them…
Budd with his arms covered in tattoos, living out in the desert, drinking Margaritas made in the blender and playing guitar, reminds me of the Jimmy Buffett song “Margaritaville”. The lyrics very much seem to fit with Budd’s attitude towards life and Bill and Bea “Some people claim that there’s a woman to blame…”. Or maybe I just listen to the oldies station too much. <LINK_TEXT text=“http://www.seeklyrics.com/lyrics/Jimmy- … ville.html”>http://www.seeklyrics.com/lyrics/Jimmy-Buffett/Margaritaville.html</LINK_TEXT>
The brand of bread that Bill is using to make BB a sandwich is “Bimbo”. I.e. a derogatory term for a blonde. Reminded me how Budd said “…she was only smart for a blonde…” earlier in v.2
The language thing. Hattori Hanzo compliments her on her Japanese “…you say arigato, like we say arigato…” in contrast to Pai Mei who tells her “your mandarin is terrible, you bray like an ass!” after having only said one word. And the general contrast between how Hanzo treats her with almost reverence and is so polite, while Pai Mei treats her like a dog and is insulting to her in virtually everything he says. Also everyone else probably noticed this too, but the first and last word in Japanese that Bea says in the “Man from Okinawa” scene is “Domo” (thanks).
Is the sword from PF in Hattori Hanzo’s sword rack? I think I see it there, third from the ground, second rack from the right - dark green with thin gold sageo. - maybe someone with a better version/inside knowledge can confirm if it is or not, I can’t see it very well but it looks like it.
Also what is Bill drinking in the “Face to Face” scene? It looks like whisky from the color and the way he is drinking it (shots), does anyone know what brand?
