A Great LITTLE Film

-- when you're feeling a little blue and want some company. For as the saying goes: misery loves company.

1. If you're interested to see Eddie all handsome and jokey and charming, either change your expectations or ditch now.

2. There's something ridiculously unique that Eddie does in this film that -- to my knowledge -- no other actor has even tried. To tell you would spoil it but a third of the way thru you'll get it. (I wrote this before AI. Now with AI I know three other films have tried it. As to not spoil, see my comment below this review.)

3. The production design is stark and simple. The town this movie is set in is rather desolate and depressing. You won't be able to take your eyes off anything, which is also because the photography is perfect.

4. One of the best rock band records EVER has two or so songs featured here. An absolute perfect choice and I'm amazed they got the rights to this epic album.

5. I saw this the night Trump became President again. I felt EXACTLY like Eddie.

6. If you enjoyed the short series TO THE WONDER you'll like BLACK DOG. Just know DOG runs a little darker. And if you enjoyed this film but haven't seen WONDER, why are you still reading this?
