Review of Moonlight Mile (2002) by Laura G — 17 Jun 2007
A really terrific film, with one of the best soundtracks I could possibly imagine. There is everything from the Stones, Van Morrison to Bob Dylan and each track lends itself perfectly to what is occuring on screen. A tragic narrative but an example of the simplicity that is required for a film to work - everything about every character is implied rather than stated, in this way we discover all the information without being delivered an exact message.
There is sentiment, but whether that is good or bad is to your own taste, Ellen Pompeo and Jake Gyllanhall somehow manage to rise to the levels of Sarandon and Hoffman. A superb film from the man who directed Lemony Snickett.
