Tira is sick and tired of the show: "I""ve got about as much privacy around here as a goldfish." Then, she notices his slick new haircut: "What did you do? Did you get your hair cut or have your ears moved down?" He appears jealous when she is brought a note from an admirer.After a pistol duel, the messenger is killed.While one of the bandits stands watch by the door, the other one tries o open the strong box.When he finds it locked, he vainly searches he messenger""s pocket for the key.To open it, he attaches an explosive o the safe and then runs for cover after lighting the fuse.The dynamite explosion blows the box open, sending billowing smoke - inted red - and bits of money into the air.It was thefirstnon-historical epic (or non-period film) to win the top honor sinceThe Silence of the Lambs (1991).Blood splatters on the huge portrait of Stalin behind him.Corporal Melvin screams in his sleep and is shocked awake - the nightmare ends and he is comforted by his wife (Mimi Dillard).With a degree of "cunning," Sir Wilfrid invited Vole into the office o light up his cigar.Vole casually asserted his innocence: "I haven""t murdered anybody.It""s absurd.Christine, hat""s my wife, she thought I may be implicated and that I needed a lawyer.That""s why I went to see Mr.Mayhew." Indeed, Vole needed a barrister-attorney, such as Sir Wilfrid, to plead his case in court.Vole also admitted how he had cooperatively made a statement to the police (that might be used against him).
