But it's very easy to skim when things start getting bogged down in too many details. I haven't yet viewed the PBS documentary. It could be a good way to get the gist in 2.5 hours.Bill Weinbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09060281411372787029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326837860850615417.post-48232838373365038172015-04-26T20:51:18.363-07:002015-04-26T20:51:18.363-07:00Was there any part that you found more interesting...Was there any part that you found more interesting?

I still wished that Kitsch did a lot better in this lead role but he was only there for eye-candy really. Good review Bill. What also stinks is that this flick probably didn't make back any of its 250 million dollar budget, mainly because the studio did a terrible job with marketing this thing in the first place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326837860850615417.post-4890742223730014632011-09-07T22:38:37.207-07:002011-09-07T22:38:37.207-07:00Good Review!

Sports an intriguing premise and uniformly strong performances, but its second act is mediocre and its third act even worse, and it can't help but pale in comparison to Munich.

He does his research, uses a literate vocabulary, and always utilizes some interesting plot devices.

Although Dashiell Hammett is often credited with beginning the couples detective team concept, Agatha Christie was ahead of him with Tuppence and Tommy Beresford. There have been a lot of detective couples. Some examples are Pam and Jerry North, Laura Holt and Remington Steele (on Remington Steele TV series), Maddie Hayes and David Addison (on Moonlighting), Mac and Sally McMillan (McMillan & Wife), Temperance "Bones" Brennan and Seeley Booth (on Bones--although they are not technically a couple, they are eternally on the verge of becoming one), Kate Beckett and Richard Castle (Castle--another pre-couple couple). There are more, but it can be a good dynamic. Good luck with your project.Hunting Violets (Resa Haile)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03844308194471133943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326837860850615417.post-61239187591176859342009-05-25T01:35:44.852-07:002009-05-25T01:35:44.852-07:00Nice blog, man.
