With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Best for people who like their stories with a little danger and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Plenty of moral grey areas to chew on. Same wavelength as In Cold Blood or Rope.
- The mood
- Dark and gritty.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 29 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1952: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.
Taking place over 12 hours on New Years Eve, a concert pianist murders his wife's lover, then frames an innocent man.
