James Earl Jones entrance in New York


if he somehow hadnt been in the film up until that point, that would have been one of the best entrances in film history :)

I know exactly what you mean. I love the way the camera photographs his exit from the limo.

Yes great camera work. It looks up at the King from a subservient position really drives home that he is an important man.

You were fantastic...absolutely fantastic...and d'you know what? So was I.

Can't be more agree with the OP!

Prostitute: What the *beep* are you doing?
Johnny: I'm gonna kill a bunch of people.

It was still awesome. It's the music that does it for me, the grandeur, the majestic power of this prelate's arrival.

Great scene into the unknown Queens from the King with the Lion hanging off his shoulder lol .... perfectly executed intro.

I agree, & the regal-sounding music fits in so nicely with that shot.
