films / movies > 1982 > Walter Hill's '48 hours'
Scene in Redneck Bar
Cates's jokey sadism,
which involves tossing
every imaginable racial epithet at Reggie
to see if he can get a rise out of this supercool convict
(he can't, and eventually he apologizes),
produces a scene destined to become a classic,
in which Reggie bets Cates that he can singlehandedly
subdue the patrons of a large redneck bar.
''It makes me sick just to be in here,''
declares Reggie,
glaring at the Confederate flag on the wall
and - it would seem
utterly destroying his chances of leaving the place
in one piece.
