Why i can never be an assassin

I know i can never be an assassin, but the idea was cemented by Jean Pierre Melville's Le Samourai. and no, it is not for moral reasons.

1. I don't like birds. Especially the noisy ones. And i will never put it beside my bed.

2. I do not have an extensive collection of coats.

3. I don't wear coats.

4. I find fedora hats irritating.

5. I will never have that much patience for that many keys.

6. I like to talk, i am never silent, i cannot keep my mouth shut for two minutes, much more two hours. (seriously, Alain Delon in this movie spoke probably less than 30 words, and the movie is almost two hours, seriously!)

7. And let's face it, i do not have Alain Delon's built, nor posture, nor his blue eyes.

So there, i now know i can never be the cool, calm collected assassin that Alain Delon was. But the movie was definitely amazing. Rain can kiss Alain Delon's ass!
