  Manhunter 1986

  ★★★★ Watched 24 Mar 2025

  The easy sexiness of Will Peterson. 
  Farina the best tv/movie cop ever. 
  The soundtrack is so deep synth cool until they play the kind of 80s synth ballad that make you wish music had never been invented. 
  I love Joan Allen

  I like docudramas. I like Peter Sarsgaard. I liked this movie. 
  (now to rewatch Munich to assuage this need to see the revenge)

  Absence of Malice 1981

  ★★★½ Watched 22 Aug 2024

  Movie was like 2.5 until about 80 minutes in when Wilford Brimley comes in like a wrecking ball and knocks the shit out of it. 
  Also, Holly Hunter > Sally Field (by a lot)

  McEnroe 2022

  ★★★ Watched 02 Dec 2022

  I’m a tennis junkie so I enjoyed even though not that great. Ashe doc is much better. And so is Fire and Ice about McEnroe v. Borg. And definitely that weird McEnroe movie at the French. This filmmaker was a little self indulgent with the visuals.
