are the same thing!

After hearing a lot about how convoluted and complex the plot was I was surprised at how straight forward everything was. Not to say that it wasn't complex and convoluted but not much more than your average noir mystery film. The presentation is just slightly trippier.

I remember hearing a story about some classic noir film where the filmmakers suddenly realized they had no idea who killed a certain character or why. So they called the author of the book the film was based on and asked him and he said he had no idea.

Personally I think being a bit confused and not getting all the answers is an integral part of the film noir experience.


It was just that I was expecting it to be really out there because the word was that it was confusing as gently caress.
