[UA] Golden Guns, and a Mini-Series

[Tim Bisaillon]

>The *only* flaw I could see with the guns was that they couldn't talk, a la
>Smith & Wesson in Buck Godot. I would suggest that they were, in a prior
>life, old service .45s from WWII that a prop man brought in for for Darren
>McGavin's Mike Hammer.
>The pistols came to like McGavin and inhereted his ambivolence for playing
>gritty action without any comic relief. They carefully studied Bob and Ray,
>recording in a nearby studio--Abbott & Costello, Burns & Allen--all the old
>greats.
>Now, in their gaudy new costumes, they can't blow holes in some unlucky sap
>without cracking wise. Come up with some demented, pomo "Who's on First" to
>delight and terrify the shootist. Of course, he's going to have a hell of a
>time being stealthy. And I think we can work in a few good "Warner Bros.
>Frog" routines.
