Drama Rated R
“…the more ‘inventive’ the movie gets, the less interesting it becomes.”
“…captures our anguished striving to crawl out of our own morass.”
“…flirts with greatness, even if it doesn’t quite attain it.”

“…a swath of glittery eye shadow splashed across mainstream American movie screens.”

“The noir fatalism seems secondary to the imagery, whereas in Sin City the imagery served the ideas.”
“In the subgenre of movies that capture (or at least artfully dramatize) the birth of beautiful music, Frank is a stunner.”
