Love Is The Devil is quite good, I think, need to rewatch. The blurred photography, the Soho bar scenes, and of course Potemkin!

I think I agree, while maybe not being entirely negative. Effective filmmaking on a moment to moment basis, but those are huge, painful, and messy cultural themes being brought up that resolve plot wise in something much simpler.

Have you seen Garner in the 1969 'Marlowe'? Was evidently an influence on Rockford Files along with the Maverick TV show (updated to the then present).

All of the distance of the film collapses onto you watching her grieve, and pretend for a moment she has escaped the ugliness around her.

Her comfort and sense of peace at the book depository never feels false to me. At being both lusted after and respected at the same time, which is so new. And Mirren plays the of how wrong it went so humanly.

It's one of my absolute favorite films. Maybe it's just me, but I find the theatricality and the artifice (which are fantastic) break through to something genuine. I find it deeply romantic, between 'His Wife' and 'Her Lover' as the story moves forward.

Blood Simple consistently ranks high in my personal Coen's canon for some reason. Beyond that, John Hawkes is always great.

The lofi production values, while clever and at times striking, kept me distant. Not unlike the book, I suppose. I should watch it again.
