Top drama
Top writing, top acting, top direction, and top cinematography.
The writing and direction in this film is just superb. This is great storytelling. And what a gritty, gutsy story it tells; sizzling, riveting, absorbing human drama. And it's all brought to aching, pulsating, sweaty life by truly great screen actors on top form. Even all the supporting acting in this film is class.
This is great storytelling.
But I have to say over all for me I think it's the writing which really socks it to you.
'You can't beat it, kid.'
old time favorite
