"Assassin's Tango" - John Powell
I originally posted "Mondo Bongo," the song that plays at the beginning of this beautiful, bad ass movie...but when I played it back something just didn't feel right. I didn't know what it was. I obviously like the song. I do. I mean, what's not to like? It comes on during one of the most steamiest scenes when we first meet two people in lust, unsure of who they are and the future that lies ahead. All they knew was there was a genuine attraction and a definite need to see where it would lead them. It was romantic, invigorating, and full of intense heat. As were we.
However, considering the circumstances of where we are now, it makes complete sense why this no longer makes sense. It was like a misshaped piece that no matter how hard it tried, it just couldn't fit in the puzzle.
Insert Tango. The truth finally revealed. No bullsh*t, but plenty of spiraling emotions. This is the one thing that I felt was missing: Honesty. And damn, can it be brutal. But I gotta say this though, it still sure wreaks of sexy. Full of fire, smarta$$isms, cockiness, sly remarks, and a few quick blows to this thing called pride. And that's just from Jane. Sparks flare between the Smiths even though both feel jaded by the other's "betrayal," fighting subtly to get the last word in. This one fits us much better, don't you agree? Uh-huh. Yup. Perfectly.
Jane Smith: Why is it you think we failed? Because we were leading separate lives? Or was it the line that did us in?
John Smith: I have a theory, newly formed.
Jane Smith: I'm breathless to hear it.
John Smith: You killed us.
Jane Smith: Provocative.
John Smith: You approached our marriage like a job. Something to be reconned, planned and executed.
Jane Smith: And you avoided it.
John Smith: What do you care? If I was just a cover?
Jane Smith: Well who said you were just a cover?
John Smith: Wasn't I?
Jane Smith: Wasn't I?
