~ Mr. Pink |
Mr. Pink is the tritagonist of the 1992 film Reservoir Dogs. Unlike most of his accomplices, he is more level-headed and doesn't choose violence as a primary option. Like the majority of the other robbers, his real name is never revealed.
He was portrayed by Steve Buscemi, who also portrayed Carl Showalter in Fargo, Nucky Thompson in Boardwalk Empire, Garland Greene in Con Air, Mr. Wesley in Home on the Range, Francis E. Francis in The Boss Baby, Dwight Diddlehopper in The Simpsons and Randall Boggs in Monsters Inc. and Monsters University.
Biography
After his accomplice Mr. Blonde went on a shooting spree, Pink found a hole in the police barricade and "shot his way out." He ran with a satchel full of diamonds with three police officers tailing him close behind. Eventually, he is struck by a car and he proceeded to carjack it, making his escape. He revealed in the film that he considered just driving away instead of going to the rendezvous point. By the end of the film, his partners Nice Guy Eddie and Joe are killed for trying to kill Mr. Orange whose a cop, and Mr. Pink runs out with the jewels.
However, if the viewer listens closely, they can hear a faint scream after Mr. Pink runs out, which Quentin Tarantino has since confirmed was the sound of Mr. Pink yelling at the cops who shot and arrested him.
