Ranking The Best Characters From Snatch - 20 Years Later
13. Gorgeous George
Who: Burly brawler who meets the wrong end of Mickey O'Neil's fist.
What he knows about diamonds: nothing at all. He's not called Gorgeous George for his reputation as a hopeless romantic, that's for sure. George is a boxer under the employ of Jason Statham's Turkish, slated to take on one of the villainous Brick Top's motley crew of fighters with a generous sum to be won... provided he takes a dive at the right time.
Before the fight, however, George makes the bad judgement of accepting a bare-knuckle boxing match with Brad Pitt's Mickey O'Neil over a dodgy caravan, while acting as a bodyguard overseeing the doomed transaction. Though he doesn't seem to be in much trouble at first facing the much smaller O'Neil, he is soon knocked spark out by a single punch.
Despite his initial introduction as a musclebound force of nature, his actual role in the story is to provide a mountainous obstacle for Mickey to make short work of - and in turn, proving the latter's own credentials for fighting.
Best quote: George implores Mickey to put an end to all this violence by pummelling him and yelling "Get back down, or you will NOT be coming up next time!".
