“One False Move. This, look, the '90s was an amazing time for films. This is my favorite film from the '90s, directed by Carl Franklin. An amazing Bill Paxton should have gotten an Academy Award nomination just for the scene where he is talking to the two cops after he has overheard them making fun of him and he has to put on this brave face. This is one of the best crime films ever made.”
