I suspect he's just there to clean up "loose ends": Becky's betrayed her own people, so why wouldn't she do the same to the Mob? She's expendable to them. The comics tell a different story, in which Becky is killed along with the other Mob members when they fall into the girls' trap:.
Back at Old Town, Gail has been ambushed and kidnapped by Manute, who has survived the previous assaults of Dwight and Miho. Gail is tortured but refuses to "facilitate" the process of surrendering Old Town. It becomes clear that Becky had sold out Old Town for money and her mother's safety. Gail bites and rips a chunk off of Becky's neck in anger, vowing that she deserves worse. As the gangsters prepare to further torture Gail, and kill Becky , an arrow shoots through one of the henchmen with a note prompting a trade: Jack's head for Gail's life.
As Dwight stands alone in an alley outside the gangsters' building with the head, outnumbered and outgunned, the trade is made: Gail being freed and the head, now bandaged up, handed over.
Becky questions why the head is now bandaged when it wasn't before. Dwight then triggers the grenades stolen from the last mercenary, exploding the head. The gangsters now realize they are in a trap as the girls of Old Town reveal themselves, heavily armed also, on the roof.
Before any defensive measures can be taken, the men and Becky are gunned down. Becky was expelled for her betrayal to the other prostitutes. Her mom's life was threatened. Tarantino agreed to direct one scene for the same price. The directing job also gave Tarantino a chance to test shooting in digital HD , of which Rodriguez is a supporter, when Tarantino is a promoter of shooting on film. When the production of the film began, the DGA told Rodriguez that according to their rules, a film can't have more than one director.
Rather than complying with their demands and not giving Miller a full director credit which he thought that Miller would deserve, as he wanted Miller to be on the set directing to ensure that they stayed true to the original , Rodriguez resigned. At that point, he had no reason not to promote Quentin as a "Special Guest Director", which was a jab at the DGA as well as being great for marketing.
Quentin did not have a cameo role in the movie. Some viewers have suggested that the character Weevil, who is sitting next to Marv at Kadie's bar during the segment That Yellow Bastard, is Tarantino, but Weevil is played by Tommy Nix. While some scenes were indeed added, totaling just under 8 minutes of actual footage added, some scenes weren't there and are assumed to not ever have been filmed. Several scenes had been altered slightly, with some characters replacing others and changes in dialogue.
Among the scenes totally missing were: The Hard Goodbye: The dialogue between Marv and his mom is cut short. The Hard Goodbye: There's a hilarious scene in which Marv, after he and Wendy have agreed to go after Goldie's killer, is unable to sleep at night with her in the same room and actually manages to confuse her with Goldie and gets slapped for it. This is a continuation of Marv losing all clarity of thought when Wendy lights him a cigarette in the car as he is again reminded of Goldie.
In the book there's a picture of a Spartan warrior, and the situations are compared. Miller actually wrote the graphic novel about the battle a few years later, which in turn was filmed by Zack Snyder in That Yellow Bastard: Hartigan simply looking Nancy Callahan up in the phone book to know where she lives.
Unlike the Roarks, he knew her real name. This caused some confusion, as some people wondered how was he able to find her. That Yellow Bastard: When Hartigan is being "interrogated" by Liebowitzs, he hallucinates jumping from the chair, breaking his handcuffs and hitting Liebowitzs in the head, causing a mushroom cloud-explosion " I have the power of God".
Miller admitted stealing the idea for the mushroom cloud-explosion punch from a Mad Magazine story called "Superduperman". The scene ends with Hartigan realizing he's still in the chair and that it was just his mind playing tricks.
It can be speculated that the scene was removed because of its similarity to the scene of Dwight imagining the dead Jack Rafferty talking to him in the car the scene directed by Tarantino , but no official explanation has been given. Also, the scene in the book where Hartigan's wife talks to him when he is in the hospital was cut from the movie.
First of all, the main difference is that on the latter version the stories are to be viewed separately. Although it was advertised to be about 20 minutes longer, the truth is that there is about 7 minutes of actual added footage; the rest is because all the stories now have credits at the end, which makes up for another 13 minutes total.
Beyond the extended cut of the film, there are plenty of reasons to get the extended cut package. Part of the point of this—some of which was used in the final version of the film—is to show how much flexibility is afforded by using digital technology. You can simply keep the camera rolling and have the actors work their way through the scene, including extra input from the director.
Sin City Live: Shot at a party for the filmmakers, cast, and crew. Features Rodriguez performing with his band. Fun to watch High-Speed Green Screen Version: All the raw footage from the film, condensed into about a minute running time.
A piece for the curious who want to know what the whole thing looked like when it was being shot. Sin-Chroni-City Interactive Game: Really more of a database than a game—breaks the events of the story into their correct timeline and lets you see how characters, locations, etc.
It's not included in some R2 editions, if in any. Various mini-docs on the cars, costumes, makeup, props, and directors. The copy of the graphic novel was not included in the Blu-ray version, which contains all of the video features in the DVD version. The opening where the Man kills the girl in the red dress is a standalone short story called "The Customer is Always Right". It has nothing to do with any of the other stories, and is complete as you see it on screen.
The idea is that Hartnett is a hitman, and the woman paid to have herself killed hence the line "I'll never know what she was running from. I'll cash her check in the morning". Miller explains this on the DVD commentary. Further, Miller expands that he told Marley Shelton, the actress who plays the Customer, that the point was the she got involved with a man who turned out to be a professional criminal.
When she tried to break up with him, he promised her a horrible death. Rather then facing that, she hired the Man to kill her, but to do it as gently as possible.
Hence the line "I didn't come here for the party. I came here for you," at which point the Customer realizes he's the hitman. Whether this was what Miller actually had in mind when he drew the story or something he came up when asked for an explanation is open to speculation. In any case, that explanation is not necessary for understanding of the scene.
You see what you are meant to see, and you are meant to draw your own conclusions. This scene was actually shot as a "test shoot" that Rodriguez organized so that he could prove to Miller that Sin City could be done "right. It was shot months before the film went into full production. As an opening to the film, it serves as an introduction to the passion and violence of Sin City, and it also serves to introduce Josh Hartnett's character as a hitman.
Whether the characters are one and the same in the movies remains to be seen, as some shorts that are to be filmed for the second movie feature the Colonel. The closing—with the Man and Becky in the elevator—is not from any of the novels, but written specifically for the movie. It was inserted to bookend the film, so that it opens and closes with the Man.
If you have seen the opening, you should know what he's there to do in the end. In the novels, Becky did not escape the gunfight in the alley. Two key scenes are required to piece it together.
Marv is in the car with Wendy, and he tells her that he heard it has something to do with Cardinal Roark, but that sounds crazy. Wendy says "No it doesn't, Goldie worked the clergy. Marv replies "Just like that, a whopper of a puzzle piece falls smack in my lap. I'm too dumb to put the whole picture together yet, but The other scene is where Marv is about to torture Cardinal Roark.
He was explaining how he and Kevin killed and ate whores, and then he says "And then your Goldie almost ruined everything", if we put two and two together Goldie was regularly around Clergymen. Later, when Davis is torturing Gail, Becky arrives and reveals her betrayal, prompting an enraged Gail to bite her neck. Manute smacks Gail and orders Stuka to kill Becky. She complains that she was promised while Gail remarks that she deserves worse.
Stuka is suddenly shot with an arrow by Miho, with a note from Dwight saying he has Jack's severed head and wants to make a deal. The Mob leaves the building, bringing Gail and Becky. Dwight is ready to trade Jack's head for Gail. Becky is the only one who realizes that there is tape over Jack's mouth and points it out to Manute, but her cries fall on deaf ears.
Sure enough, Jack's head explodes from the bomb Dwight planted in it. Manute recovers and prepares to kill Dwight, but freezes when he sees that all the Girls of Old Town are pointing their guns at the Mob.
Becky makes a small appearance in The Hard Goodbye. She is in the room with Gail and Dallas watching Wendy interrogate Marv.
