Viewing Notes

Doesn’t stick the landing but everything leading up to it is great and really shows de Palma’s future potential. The score is astoundingly good, all the more so for the portions that threaten to descend into camp but never do. I LOVE this score! I haven’t watched this in ages. I have the Criterion DVD but decided to upgrade to the Blu-ray recently during the Criterion flash sale.
