But I'm being selfish about it. I know these children are here to stay--as butchers, Realtors, car salesman, physicians--and Dalton is a richer place because...
...Sisco is a slightly suspect agent, Clooney is the cleanest-living, most personable criminal in cinematic history, the thief in the gray flannel suit, a gentleman and a robber.
