Viewing Notes

Very good neo noir that offers a story / plotting we’ve seen many times. But here it’s in the execution that makes this stand out. Gorgeous movie with plenty of small moments and touches that I look forward to viewing again. My only nitpick is that the main plot device I really do not like in film. Which sucks bc there’s so much greatness here. Maybe my attitude will be different on the next viewing since I know to expect that.
