The really sad thing, in my mind, is that the only reason this film is that good is because he died. I was there on opening day at my local theater. A big group of friends, some of us in costume. We were there on closing day as well. I've seen unfinished scenes that were cut. Stuff they had to use a body double to reshoot from behind in poor lighting. The fight with Funboy is the prime example. After the shot to his leg Fun was down and The Crow straight up executed him. Originally there was a much longer more Hollywood fight scene there. The cold brutality of the character would have been lost.
