    I felt wrong when I saw half of it, so I waited for a shocking ending. But it wasn't really shocking. The whole movie has a great...

    sleepy. The end is okay. The starring eyes of the actor and the bitter face of the heroine. Scarlett KJ. Ha...

    7 points. Made in black and white as a tribute to previous noir films. The protagonist's smoking face is quite...

    The photography is good, the story is mysterious, Thornton is really cool this time. The Coen brothers are very good at borrowing something to express something deeper, this time a rolling wheel...

    read it twice. The second time is because I forgot that I had seen it once, and I only vaguely remember who killed who and who took the blame. Billy Bob's silhouette is perfect for black and white, and the whole film has an eerie pomp. The prose monologues are mixed with some absurd plots, and the gloomy atmosphere is too heavy and...

    People don't cut their hair, they don't care about people. Yes, naturally grown hair can really make one feel calm or lost while meditating on its magic. Fortunately or unfortunately, the male protagonist as a hairdresser did not bury his hair directly in the soil, but bet on the person. For that he pays an equal price for his actions or choices, and in the end we see a person sitting in your place in the empty space left by The Absentee, which is undoubtedly all the fables the Coen brothers...

    One of the darkest movies of the Coen brothers, after watching it, I liked Billy Bob Thornton very much, and immediately put down his sling...

    It's been a long time since a movie made waves in my heart... Absentee did it this time. Originally, I felt that I had gradually become a happy little second-hand, and I could not feel the pain nor think. This time I saw the absent person and found that I had not completely lost the ability to...

    To be precise, I didn't understand it, a little bit different from the Coen brothers' style? And Scarlett Johansson, this little girl, can be seen anywhere, this one turned into a little...

    afterthought and memo

    Note that this film is extremely depressing, and it will make you feel down several times after watching it. The feeling of watching the movie can only be described as "black". The protagonist's attitude towards life reminds me of my grandfather~ It seems that he has seen through the world and...

    Movie noir sharing session

    ——Noir movie sharing

    Black, a mysterious, unfathomable, eerie color, can also be said to contain all colors. Therefore, film noir is also absurd, made up of images, anti-routine, unexpected, and even some existential motifs about the meaninglessness and...

The Man Who Wasn't There quotes

  • Ed Crane: [narrating] There they were. All going about their business. It seemed like I knew a secret, a bigger one even than what had really happened to Big Dave. Something none of them knew. Like I had made it to the outside somehow, and they were all still struggling way down below.

  • Big Dave Brewster: Japs had us pinned down in Buna for something like six weeks. Well, I gotta tell ya, I thought *we* had it tough, but, Jesus, we had supply. *They* were eating grubs, nuts, thistles. When we finally up and bust off the beach we found Arnie Bragg, kid missing on recon; the Japs had *eaten* the sonofabitch, if you'll pardon the, uh... And this was a scrawny, pimply kid too, nothin' to write home about. I mean, I never would've, ya know, so what do I say, honey? When I don't like dinner, what do I say? I say, 'Jesus, honey, Arnie Bragg - *again*'?
