I never saw the whole thing, but the scenes with Antonio Banderas' kids and the dead hooker had me rolling when I first saw it.

GREAT flick! The last part is taken from a Roald Dahl short story, read The Omnibus

I have to read a short story to find out what the last part was now?
A simple one sentence summary would've sufficed. :disappointed:

Topper's a dick. Whatever.
Header- the last story involves a bunch of drunk fools in the Penthouse of the hotel, and Tim Roth being stuck watching them make a bet on one of the friends who has to light his lighter 10 times in a row or else he gets his pinky finger chopped off.
Well, Tim Roth is the guy doing the chopping & Quentin Tarantino gives him $1,000 to do the chopping. The guy loses his finger, Tim Roth is $1,000 richer & that's that. But what annoyed me was how long it took to get to the fucking point & end the movie.
Make sense?

I liked that scene. THe details of the film are sketchy with me since it has been 9 years. But I liked that scene a lot. But I guess I see your point on the drawn out nature of it.

I thought the entire film was discombobulated, which is what happens when you have four different stories by four different directors. It doesn't have any sense of flow or unity, though I thought Tim Roth's acting was superb.
