Miscellaneous Movie Musings

Finally saw Before the Devil Knows You're Dead. Great film that I found hard to watch. Two hapless brothers (Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke) hatch an ill-advised crime scheme that results in both their lives getting progressively and excruciately destroyed. Great performances and a good script, a lot of time shifting (which I love), and it was wonderfully directed by the not-dead-yet Sidney Lumet.
