01/04/2021 This noir gem has received poor reviews from others here, as it is likely those reviewers are of the single-digit IQ bro types that would confuse the term 'cerebral' with Frosted Flakes and other such items associated with junk food breakfasts. This is a dark comedy that has a none too subtle meditation on mortality. This is most obvious in the opening sequence, where we see one of the protagonists, a bearded Mephistophilian debt collector and family man, going for his morning run in a cemetery. This is not cheesy grinned all-Californian sunshine fare. It's cynical, European, and takes place in Rome in Winter, and it has a macabre soundtrack to boot too. Classical baroque pieces play alongside Francoise Hardy's 'Nausea' and Cop Shoot Cop's 'Everybody Loves You (When You're Dead). I loved this film. If you are found of noir visuals a la 'In Bruges', ignore the bad reviews posted by the dim and dull, and give this a watch! See more Read all reviews
