| 09.05.06 | Paramount | So this guy came around really early in the morning (for me) to fix my terlet... so consequently I think I didn't give either of these french crime films that the Paramount played tonight a fair chance due to fatigue. I couldn't help but rest my eyes for a few seconds at a time off and on through about a third of both of these films and, when they're subtitled, that sorta means trouble. I also blame Miles Davis' score for this one. It's so sleepy... Anyway, the parts that I was lucid and attentive for were pretty good. I really liked how it ended... there were a few really great moments here, but all night I was sort of remembering the last night of french crime that they played and how much I liked those more... Maybe someday I'll see this again with tons of energy and really give it a proper viewing, but right now it was just pretty good. |
