The Man Who Wasn't there !
What an interesting film.
I picked this up at my local supermarket last weekend. Ninety-nine pence from the bargain bin.
As soon as I saw Billy-Bob Thornton was in it (I'm a fan after Monster's Ball & A Simple Plan) I thought it would be a good idea. The fact that the Coen Brothers were behind the film sold it to me - last of the big spenders eh?
It was a VHS cassette, in black & white monochrome.
The atmosphere was set from the start. The narrative from Thornton was delivered in such gravelly , gravitas laden tones it just made you sit up and take notice. How evocative were the props in the way of old barber shop fittings and the drop dead gorgeous cars - big old American gas guzzlers ,as aerodynamic as refrigerators some of 'em but boy did they look good. I have no idea where this movie would have been set. I would guess probably the mid-west somewhere but I could be hopelessly wrong.
It was a splendidly interwoven plot with great contributions from all the cast. I was surprised to see a young Scarlett Johannsen in this film, I don't know much about her and have seen one of her other roles (Lost in Translation) but she had something about her here. The feeling I had reminded me of seeing Jack Nicholson in Easy Rider , three decades after its first release. It was obvious Nicholson would go on to stardom. This was Scarlett's 'Easy Rider' in my opinion.
The sombre, austere lighting and sets created an air of spartan simplicity and this film was just made for the black & white medium.
Holding my attention from start to finish this unusual piece of work will not be enjoyed by everyone, but if you have some depth, do not always need crash, bang and wallop to enjoy your cinema then I recommend it highly.
It's a largely forgotten gem of the cinema
