Poor Bastards of Cinema: The Black Windmill

 *** A long absence- too long- since this Segment was last seen. ***

In The Black Windmill, an Agent- Michael Caine- is forced to work against his agency to save his son.

He ends up on the run, going to a train in hurry!

He's not exactly polite while doing this, knocking into a bunch of people on the way.  This leads to a weird bit of incidental damage.
He hits a guy in a blue jacket carrying some sort of heavy sac on his shoulder.  
The bump makes him drop it over the side of the stairs and just clobber a guy!

At best, that's a carpet and hurts like hell!

At worst, he's the world's worst guy at disposing of bodies.
So technically nobody dies- as far as we know- but this one still counts for me.

A random fellow who's not even ON THE STAIRS is injured by our Hero's actions.
I'm counting it!

The moral- watch your head.

Next up, a poor bastard is simply doing their job.  That's a death sentence in some Films!  See you then...
