Review of Irrational Man (2015) by Amboy — 11 Aug 2015
This study of an alienated academic philosopher doesn't become a murder story until half way through, and it never becomes much of one (any number of possible twists are overlooked). But the performances are full of wit and invention (Emma Stone and Parker Posey hit career highs and Joaquin Phoenix is dead right in a difficult role), and the jazz piano (especially the Ramsey Lewis Trio) is great.
