You can see the admiration that he has for one of his greatest enemies. That he has the respect to have a final drink, before ruthlessly executing him.
@@hajiyevdifference between Berlin and Townsend is that , although Townsend was more powerful out of two , but red saw him coming from a mile away , red always knew who townsend was and that he is coming for him . While Berlin was in shadows , red had no idea who Berlin was and knew nothing about him and was genuinely afraid at first .
I like that Berlin knows that when they reach the end of the bottle, he dies. And yet he’s not dragging it out, not weeping, not trying to slow it down, he just plows through the bottle and gives a few good memories and then drains it dry. He’s not afraid of death and he’s not fighting it.
Peter Stormare... and James Spader... in a classic toast to respect before that which must come to be. Beautiful scene. Thank you for sharing/reminding.
I was always uncomfortable about Red killing Berlin. Like, he knew you didn't kill his daughter, and he's an honorable man with a lot of resources. Like, he would make an amazing ally. Why would you kill him
I dont think Red trusted him, also he could've turned on him as an ally (something that we didnt expect from Marvin Gerard, and he was much less powerful than Berlin). And i guess one of the main things was that Berlin wanted to kill Liz, and even if thats in the past, Red doesnt forgive shi*t like that :) He is still my favorite villain thought :) him and Townsend
