Yes! I just saw this again on Saturday night during a midnight screening at the Music Box Theatre. Awesome to watch at home, but even better in a packed theatre full of hash-heads & die-hard
Coen brother fans.

I think Layer Cake is one of the best British gangster movies ever and is in my top 3 all-time. This has Duran Duran's Ordinary World and it makes it totally badass.

Heh heh, in Old School, after Will Ferrells character has been shot with a tranquiliser gun and gone on a rampage through a kids birthday party culminating in him plunging into the swimming pool, Simon and Garfunkel's Sound of Silence starts playing ("Hello darkness, my old friend"). Hysterical.
