"The Pawnbroker" has to be undoubtedly one (if not) the best Rod Steiger movies I've ever seen (I've seen quite a few); espeicially since this was his first major dramatic role from 1965 and it's a winner.

I love how they involved Patrick Stewart to tie the film to the X-men Universe.

Wolverine tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past, his complex relationship with Victor Creed, and the ominous Weapon X program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new, including surprise appearances by several legend...
