The Rules of Attraction 2002
One of the many nightmares of life: When you can afford for your life to be a mess, there are no rules, so you make up ways to self-destruct. …. I’m in love with the texture of this film. … The Victor segment is pure magic.

Sweet Smell of Success 1957
Dialogue to envy. Camera placement, framing, movement, light, shadows, and focus that help tell the story. Quirky, likeable, flawed, almost-sympathetic, selfish, doomed characters. And small perfect moments like when Rita calls Sydney “eyelashes.” And remember when screenwriters didn’t explain everything to you? The little mysteries are the best parts, and SSoS is full of them.
Watched on TCM.
