I am not oversold myself, but I have a lot of respect for the film.TSorensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12208153011927807857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-71430037710588805422015-03-21T17:03:51.692+02:002015-03-21T17:03:51.692+02:00I'm kind of lukewarm on this one.

O'Brien is very good in that one as well.marie_dresslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06334550550983418668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-83170049949383384552015-03-21T10:56:54.747+02:002015-03-21T10:56:54.747+02:00This would have been a very different film today a...This would have been a very different film today and not nearly as interesting. At least not as a big budget Hollywood production, though I could somehoow see this as a modern French production.TSorensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12208153011927807857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-3267230308984082622015-03-21T10:55:26.730+02:002015-03-21T10:55:26.730+02:00Yes, my point exactly.

Even if the resolution was a bit of a fizzle.TSorensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12208153011927807857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-5165746702341899512015-03-21T06:27:19.613+02:002015-03-21T06:27:19.613+02:00I thought this movie was okay.

Like you said, you can kind of understand how he got into the situation. Movies nowadays would get a ton of shit if they tried to present the same situation as sympathetically and even-handedly as this film does.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-73309113474462179402015-03-21T03:27:37.004+02:002015-03-21T03:27:37.004+02:00I don't disagree.

Note that I didn't say that I liked it. <br /><br />What really makes it work for me, though, is that it could have been really lurid and dirty, and it really isn't.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.com
