Little-known cinematic trivia: Madsen played a similar psycho in "Kill Me Again" (starring Val Kilmer and Joanne Whalley-Kilmer).  Tarantino saw that movie and cast Madsen as Mr. Blonde.

that is funny on multiple levels. well done.

I thought if you had hair like that it should match your pocket square.
