NightCrawler
Aeons gone, vast, mad and deathless
Griffith said:Pretty much, except I'd say "but I expected a little more" in light of its notoriety. It kind of meandered on and on and then abruptly ended for one thing, and the made up girl wasn't really worth making up as she was largely inconsequential to most of the movie, and thye more interesting issues at hand. It just seemed shoehorned in there to turn it into a simple parable. Truth is stranger than fiction, and as always I think just presenting the story as factually as possible would have been infinitely more compelling.
I thought at one point the movie would go in a Rashomon kind of storytelling but it ended up being bland and straightforward. Stylized enough to keep me interested. Although the overly witty super non-realistic fast dialogue almost made it unwatchable. Definitely Fincher's worst movie *picks up rock for the first one who dares to mention Alien 3*
It'll probably win the best picture Oscar, and will be remembered with other amazing winners like Crash and Shakespeare in Love.
Griffith go watch "Exit" and join in the fun, i think it's on Netflix instant if you go the paragon way ;)
