When Macon busts, he accuses Sundance of cheating while the card player is raking in his winnings and stacking everything neatly in piles: "You""re a helluva card player fella.It was a twilight autumn evening in the ugly own of Hadley, Texas (population 24,554), named after the oil tycoon head.She had me licked.And she knew it.So for a week, she treated me as if I was only somebody working around the place.I nearly went out of my mind.I couldn""t go, and I couldn""t stay the way things were.Then, one night, I finally decided I had to have a talk with her to see if there wasn""t some future, some way for the two of us.The hero dreamt himself into a detective movie that mirrored his real-life roubles.In a sense, Keaton""s objective was to present a satirical ribute to the power of the movies to glamorize reality (Hollywood""s Dream Factory) - to inspire escapist dreams, to let us live vicariously through film characters, to identify with film stars, or to project one""s hopes and wishes onto the screen (or in our mind""s eye).
