I love how calm and collective David really is during the attack, and how nonchalant he sounds when he says "don't come in here" and "the gun's empty."
-
Such a great film! I cannot praise this film enough. The remake doesn't even come close.
-
The rat catcher still got his nose on, that disturbs me what a scene marvellous.
-
The music fits the scene so well honestly.
-
This film is art. Carthatic violence...
-
"Every Dog Has His Day!" David Sumner unleashing his inner Straw Dog.
-
The music is a good idea. Forget the psychological aspect, if they cant hear each other they cant worontogether effectively. Hoffmans alone and has no one on his side, so noise is useful to him.
-
Great movie. Hoffman is impressive
-
Even with though the music is playing as a strategy ploy, I still think it gives a sense of bravery and courage. Like William Wallace and the Battle of Stirling. Plus, what better music to fight off intruders to, than the pipes???
-
For me it's not the bagpipes that make this part of the film, it's the distant fog signal.
-
This movie is like savage home alone
-
Apparently, the music was turned on so that Hoffman's footsteps could not be heard.
-
this fucking scene. I'm telling ya
-
“Gun is empty” what a work..
-
The tune that the audio is playing is a 6/8 March called farewell to the creeks
-
Never listened to bagpipes the same again after this movie
-
Perfect..!!

Sometimes people sing to set their mind to what needs to be done and nothing else exists. It used to be commonly used in the military bagpipe players for instance. Some people look at the floor and start humming and then get up and do what they need to do. Some people refer to it as dying inside. Nothing matters nothing exist only that moment is all.

defend you home like that today in the UK and you're off to prison for a very long time

Classic movie. Hoffman and Susan George were fantastic along with supporting cast. S. Pekinpa directed The Wild Bunch.
