A lonely mans slide.

Rating: 10/10 (26 September 2002)

First I should say that I really am not a Scorsese fan. I think he over directed to the detriment of stories and his films never feel realistic to me. But this is very different.
To set a film in one of the worlds most bustling metropolis's and create the repressive feeling of lonliness and vacuity present in this film is an achievment. I have to say, the more I watch this film the more I appreciate it, the monologues and diary entries are ingenius.
I have to give this 9.5/10. I cant think of any other film that got into a characters head so much whilst giving out so many tid-bits of dialogue and info.
Dark and very believable, in an unconventional way.
