Black Days (2001)
masterpiece of noir
I saw this film at a film festival in NYC in Aug of 2001. The place was packed and loved the film as much as I did.
Not many writers/directors can get noir to come out of modorn actors mouths but Margolis/Morley did it. Plus, to be able to mesh pop-culture with hard-core noir was a hoot to see and hear!!
This film is recommended for all who enjoy smart filmmaking and witty scripts. Both male leads put in top-notch efforts. The ice cream scene still has me laughing.
Six-String Samurai (1998)
classic!
Not many films can pull off what they did here - looking good, fast action, large supporting cast of nut-jobs.
It is true that this movie is not perfect. Death and his gang sound stupid, look worse, and with all the fine crafted supporting characters, you'd think that they'd have a better #1 bad guy. But the story is original and the film doesn't waste time feeling bad for itself in the spots were weakness shows.
It is one of my finest DVDs and I'm proud to explain the plot to all who pick it up!
