      Hahahaha!!! That is the best comment I have ever read on a UA-cam video! These days most people just type a random 'lol' or a smiley face for no reason whatsoever or type the dreaded 'Who is watching in 2021? (I am sick to death of seeing that pointless shit)'..... People have nothing interesting to say anymore. Thank you for typing a genuine funny but true comment!

    After seeing the movie it would show him as the one who set John up. I don't believe he would tell this story if that were true. The book tells some stories differently and liberties have to be taken to make the movie more appealing to audiences. Did that happened with this part as I thought John was a stand up guy to his friends? I would be angry in the same position. It could have been anything that took him away but he should have sought him out for his help as a mate would do. Or could it be he was there for another reason and Eddie as John's mate talked him out of it? We'll never know. I thought more of McVicar than to let Eddie Richardson dictate his actions. Am I wrong? Was John McVicar part of the gang like his prison report had said? I though him and Eddie were just mates. He was an Armed Robber and just of that world. I always thought he done it for the buzz more than necessity?
