Last Looks

Waldo, a former cop and professional weirdo, leaves his exile somewhat involuntarily for Hollywood to find out if TV star and professional alcoholic Alastair Pinch killed his wife, or if someone set him up. But in Hollywood, you can't trust anyone. Last Looks is a fine crime drama that isn't afraid to alternate suspense with bizarre humour, has a very fine cast and doesn't get boring. But it's more of a sequence of dialogue than a movie, because it's actually a lot of talking, mostly to make sure no one notices how cheap and underfunded the whole thing is. But once you get over that and get used to the cheaper look, it's actually unexpectedly good. (07.03.2022)
