Movie Favorite

"Years ago, I went to see this documentary with a friend, not knowing who Scott Walker was. When I came out of the cinema he was my new favourite artist. I’m absolutely not kidding! It was made at the time he made [2006 album] The Drift, and it sets out how he moved his career away from his early years, on his own terms. If you haven’t seen it, I swear you’ll be wanting to punch a piece of meat for percussion, as he does on Clara, by the end of it. It’s that good."

Movie Rating

Two upper-class teenage girls in suburban Connecticut rekindle their unlikely friendship after years of growing apart. Together, they hatch a plan to solve both of their problems-no matter what the cost.

The beginning of this one seemed promising and I was looking forward to where the duo were going, but the film swerved off into some fairly boring territory quickly. I was left fidgeting and querying (after my many years of watching crime dramas and reading forensic science books) how any of them managed to convince the police of their guilt/innocence.

Well. I hadn't seen this film in about ten years, so I decided that I was going to re-watch this. Somehow, in ten years, my brain must have edited out the whole middle section with a woman cheating on her husband with two other men... And all of the weirdness that came with that... So that was fun. I did not remember that part and to be honest was a little weirded out by it. But the bank heists were super well written and I absolutely love the twist ending.
