You have to rewatch it when you have been in a quiet mind for awhile and not much TV and movies for about a week.
This film is very noirish, so watch an old Hitchcock black and white to get into the groove. (Cat People the original would be another one that has the same pacing.)
Trust me, it will make a difference:)

No, no I don't think so.....;) I'm glad you liked it, but the characters weren't the least bit interesting to me, and neither were the performances. And the ONLY interesting part of the film, the murder of Elizabeth Short, seemed incidental to the plot. Other films have done it much better, if I am in the mood for film noir, I will stick to The Maltese Falcon, Double Indemnity, etc....films with characters that actually do draw me in, and keep me interested.
