Watched TV: Saw The Walker
Watched TV: Saw The Walker (Paul Schrader, 2007). This movie sounds extremely promising if you read the synopsis and look at the cast. Kristin Scott Thomas! Lauren Bacall! Lily Tomlin! Willem Dafoe! Washington, mystery, murder, escort man... But Schrader just doesn't deliver the goods, and it's hard to pinpoint why exactly. No-one is really convincing in The Walker, and the would-be PoMo jokes / tributes don't work. American Gigolo (Paul Schrader, 1980) was much better.
