    Black Bag

    A delightfully sleek and stylish time at the movies. Soderbergh’s operating on different level of proficiency. In a time when tv seasons taking 4 years to come out is the usual, we have good ol’ Soderbergh bringin’ the feast twice a year. Looks good, sounds good, feels good.

    I have completely 180’d on Patrick Fugit’s performance. So sincere, so tender. A minnow in the Atlantic, a “real” person in a “fake” world.

    “Do you realize 
    That you have the most beautiful face 

    Do you realize 
    We’re floating in space 

    Do you realize 
    That happiness makes you cry

    ★★★½

    FIRST SUNDANCE MOVIE!!! 

    Scoot McNairy knocked it out of the park. Somehow making me both resent and feel deeply sorry for him. Andrew Durham, especially for being a first time director, did quite well at making a story that spans continents and years feel very tight and personal. Thought the script needed one more draft because of some cheesy dialogue that contrasted the back half of the films darker tone

    Also, Q&A with Coppola and crew did help with the overall experience
