Finally saw Knives Out.

It was competent, but fluff.
It was fun. I'm not disparaging it.

But I spent more time reassembling the pastiche of other movies, novels, and network drama episodes it sampled to cobble together the narrative than being bowled over by anything approached Best of Decade.

I can't place it, but I have a distinct memory of it. The central conceit of why, . . . OK let me be circumspect and oblique here to avoid spoilers. . . .

The central narrative conceit that made the blackmail evidence actually completely exculpatory, with the help of a little bit of extrapolation, was directly lifted from an existing narrative.

OK< at this point I can't get any more detailed without spoiling, but I'll try to minimize even behind the spoiler tag. . .

Spoiler!


So clear to me, that I can't get past the mental way station that it must have happened in a Law and Order episode, but it probably happened in something else. Thing is I remember the exposition regarding it being nearly identical.

So now, even after it's over, I'm thinking more about where I've seen that narrative before than the movie itself.

I’ve GOTTA go ahead and put 3 Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri on my list, still watching it on FX right now... just simply outstanding, this is what real movies look like

Hollywood needs a LOT more of these, and a lot less remakes and tired comic book overkill

edit - WOW what a movie, a tour de force of acting brilliance paired with a gripping script 5/5

Then this movie.

And then in Wonder Woman, and then again in Hell Or High Water.

The man can act.

That dude can act! Never realized how great he is. Great call! POS REP for you. :-)

How do we feel about Winter's Bone? (that's what she said). I forgot about that movie until it popped up on HBO the other day. I really liked that one.

It portrayed a certain world without commenting on it one way or the other. One of the few movies I watched all the way through without checking emails, etc.
