Joe Mantegna suddenly catblock / why I like Rossi

[gsyh.livejournal.com]

There is something about Rossi that is always sweet and hilarious. Gavin de Becker said that men are worried that women would laugh at them, while women are worried that men would kill them (for laughing/rejecting them). Well Rossi had always struck me as the kind of men who wouldn't be afraid or angry at a woman who laughs at him, even if it was in bed. Is this weird? The fact that he stayed friends with his first wife have me reading Rossi less as a man who have failed three marriages, and more as a man who have moved pass three failed marriages (or mistaken match-ups) - his id is not dependent on any conduct of 'his woman'.

I don't know why, but Strauss's face, Strauss LEERY face, I can see her tucking dollar bills into Rossi's pants.

That cap is a look she's giving Rossi during one of their arguments in "25 to Life".

It's when she's telling him "You never did understand about politics." and Rossi snarks "Oh, I understand. I just don't care." The look she gave him totally looked to me like she was having a little flashback.
