Shallow Grave

improvised explosive advice (WmC), Tuesday, 8 May 2012 23:41 (1 year ago) Permalink

Weekend, of course, both film proper and end credits. It's more a matter of mood and gesture, but I find the last shot of Miller's Crossing strangely nihilistic...I think, I don't know; it's one of my favourite endings ever, but I'm not sure what feelings it conveys.

You made a fine choice. So what leapt out at you most?

The score, the static shots, the tightness of the editing, but mainly Hackman's performance. Great all-around.

Re: great nihilistic endings. Morocco has a good one, I'd argue -- it's not properly romantic at all.
