Oh? Is that the case? So, I guess Paul Bettany did absolutely nothing in this scene. It was all Eddie Marsan. In fact, it was probably Eddie Marsan wearing the faces of all the other actors including the women. I bet Malcom McDowell was simply beside himself when Eddie showed up to the set with bells on. -No, Eddie's performance was well matched by every actor in this movie and Paul's performance was better than Eddie's.

It scares me to think how Bettany pulled this character off. The character is such an extreme psychopath. Of all the villains I've seen on screen (Hannibal Lector, Anton Chigurh, The Joker, even Michael Myers) the Gangster is the only one that genuinely scares me. Not only is he cold-hearted, but he has this look of intense hatred in his eyes, like he could torture you to death for the most trivial reason. In real life, there is a special sub-type of psychopath called ''The Tyrannical Sadist'' or ''The Malevolent Psychopath''. This type is literally the worst of the worst. Not only are they psychopathic, but they are also extremely sadistic. Whereas other psychopaths get off on conning people for money, this type gets off on actually causing pain and distress to other people. If you come across one: either get the hell away from them ASAP, or be prepared to physically fight them with everything you've got: you're basically facing a ravenous tiger. That's how dangerous they are. Bettany portrayed this type of psychopath really well. Other great performances of Tyrannical Sadists: 1) Brett in ''Eden Lake''. 2) The Tapeworm in ''Irreversible''. 3) The nobles in ''Salo''. Make no mistake, monsters do exist in real life. And they exist in the form of Tyrannical Sadists. They are literally intra-species predators. They'll treat you like a cat would treat a helpless mouse.

"scared little weakling"? Dude's not a weakling, he's just momentarily drawn into a game way out of his league, and where the stakes are his life. He's settled on being a thief, and nothing more, and all of a sudden he's supposed to make decisions - on the spot! - regarding not only his own, but Freddie's and Lennie's lives too. All while being interrogated by a 6'4 sociopathic goon who just brandished an axe. He's broken, yes, doesn't mean he's necessarily a weakling. When I first saw this I was just all sympathy for Eddie.

Gangster makes it through just like Eddie although on a very different recipe. The point is that Eddie knows Gangster for what he is, an extreme psychopath, he is genuinely scared. And Gangster knows this; he also knows that if he ever needs anything from Eddie all he has to do is scare him. No bruises to be explained, no bodies to be buried; all he has to do is ask Eddie to look at his fucking eyes.

He never had to resort to violence with Eddie; all he had to do was look at him a certain way. In fact you'll notice that Eddie was the only one that the Gangster was (bizarrely) gentle with. I think in a sense, Eddie was the closest thing the Gangster had to having a genuine bond with someone, as evidenced by their later conversations.

Paul Bettany should never have moved to LA and tried to have a Hollywood career. He's done so little there. Eddie Marsan has not made that mistake, and as a result has been in such a wider variety of films and series..despite not having "film star" looks. Same for Toby Jones, and Stephen Graham. They all do so much interesting stuff. Benedict Cumberbatch is now also stuck in dumb spandex hell. He'll leave behind no roster of excellent independent films or intelligent series as a result.
