I think we are very alike, although I haven't seen Secondhand Lions.
Plucky side-kicks and partners who get killed halfway through an action film to provide motivation for the star to
go kick some major ass despite his reticence to do so for the prior 47 minutes also make me cry.
You know, like Dirty Harry's partner, or the hardworking, disadvantaged youth that Chuck Norris always seems to know?
