18 Things You Somehow Missed In Reservoir Dogs
15. Eddie Doesn't Talk About Madonna
As the group of men sit around and discuss Madonna’s work, there is one man who stays completely out of the conversation. There are a lot of characters in the scene and so this could easily have been missed, but Nice Guy Eddie didn’t really have much to say. Nothing, in fact.
There is no doubt that he is a chatty man, as is evidenced throughout his interactions with Vic when he gets out of prison, and the story he tells White, Pink, and Orange on their way to meet Joe and the others. He is however, uncharacteristically quiet while the conversation revolves around Madonna.
His omission from this chat has absolutely nothing to do with the movie or its narrative, but instead the actor’s personal life. Chris Penn’s brother Sean was once married to Madonna, and so out of respect for his former sister-in-law, Eddie stayed quiet.
