Review of Nobody Walks (2012) by Dan O — 09 Dec 2012
"Nobody Walks" is a wonderful piece of small, dramatic, indie cinema highlighted by very nuanced performances and a multi-faceted sound design and soundtrack. "Nobody Walks" is very low-key, and is probably too low key for some, but it hit the spot for me.
I enjoyed its exploration of infidelity and that it briefly explores themes of generations and generational movements, but doesn't dive too deep into them. They're just pieces of the flesh covering the character's of "Nobody Walks".
In many ways it reminded me of "Rules of the Game", a 1939 French film that explored amoral characters and left relationships in shambles. "Nobody Walks" isn't close to as comedic as "Rules of the Game" nor as direct with its audience, instead pushing for the subtle, which matches a lot of what's going on in indie cinema today.
"Nobody Walks" is Arpke Approved at 4 out of 5 stars.
