What critics compared The Hand to
Consider what Oliver Stone brought to his American history lessons, once upon a time: a pure, unfiltered shot of screaming-hot madness; the homeless guy Stone played in his own The Hand who accosts you with his briefcase full of evidence and a bellyful of zealotic bile.
Yeah, we know how it is with you Iron City-swillin’ (oh, you’re not from Pittsburgh; okay, Old Milwaukee then) snobs who troll B&S Movies: Sir Michael Caine’s hand going “Hands of Orlac” across Canada courtesy of Stan Winston’s make up work (The Hand; 1981) is “the shit” while Bruckheimer’s MTV dive-bombing F-14s is “shit”.
