Well, we're sorry to hear of the passing of Chris Penn, Chris Penn being Nice Guy Eddie Cabot in one of not only our favorite movies ever but also the flick that pretty much set the path of mainstream moviemaking for a decade an a half in both America and Britain. Here then is a three-fer in one post:

First, the ear-cutting bit of Reservoir Dogs:

--then Reservoir Cats, the Itchy and Scratchy goof on Tarantino from the Simpsons:

--and finally this odd Star Wars CG thing from Jeff Allen, which is 900% better than we thought it would be:

Careful viewers with notice none of these clips have Chris Penn in them. Our advice to future character actors is to try to get in the scene with the torture in it, as we find that has more "legs" than the talky bits. Chris Penn did get an action figure, though.
