The A.V. Club
The would-be comic conceit of a foul-mouthed old person is, at this point, only slightly younger than the ability to depict foul-mouthed characters in cinema. The fact that anyone would consider this sort of character a shocking yet hilarious delight is almost inherently anti-comedic; it’s hard to laugh from inside the deep depression caused by smug faux-edginess. Yet having acting legend Robert De Niro play a recently widowed and extremely foul-mouthed senior citizen—basically the Johnny Knoxville role in Bad Grandpa minus the prosthetics and performance art—is not necessarily the automatic travesty some would suggest.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
